Title: Indigo Junction Shift dress
Post by: sewmuchmore on June 18, 2020, 19:01:05 PM
A quick and easy make today just so i don't sit and fret. Yes it is another square dress for my square body.
I have made this about 4 times now but for some reason   this was too tight around the arm, not sure what i have done but ended up putting a v shaped piece into the sleeve/side seam. Now fits perfectly.

Love your fabric... I like the style too but I’d look like a bag of hammers!

@Efemera fabric was from Fabricate in Mirfield but she has sold out. I do know that Minerva (https://www.minervacrafts.com/shop/fabric/dress-fabrics/c8009-white-m-embroidered-denim-fabric?colour=Gold) has some but it is £4 a metre more than i paid.

I’m having nothing to do with Minerva anymore...twice I’ve had crap customer service. Shame because they have some nice stuff.

@Efemera I never buy from them, like you crap customer service, never answer emails, fabric never the weight they say it is and much more expensive for same fabrics than elsewhere etc etc.
I do look and then if i see anything i google the fabric to find a cheaper supplier.
