Miss Golightly out on the town!


As I wanted this blog to cover my crafts, especially my sewing I am getting started by posting the object I am currently quite proud of and in love with: My Golightly dress. Made from cotton that I bought in LA years ago before the total polkadot craze I always had the fear to make something out of this that wasn't worth the fabric. Only after finding another source to get I cut it up and made this out of it! Using patterns from my alltime favourite site www.burdastyle.com (e.g. the bodice sloper and the marie skirt) I am really happy with the outcome and with what I got out of the fabric.
It's funny how hesitant I am to cut up beautiful fabric of which I have only a limited amount, I covet it so much I am sincerely afraid of ruining it by making the wrong garment out of it. I always have the feeling that a fabric has to sit with me for so and so long until I find out what it will be become. I wish I would give all my decisions as much thinking before cutting things up!!
