In dem zweiten online-Kurs, den ich bei Marchionna Couture gemacht habe, haben wir ein Hemdblusenkleid genäht. Auch hier war wieder Material und Schnitt enthalten. Besonderheiten bei diesem Kleid sind die Riegel und der handgefertigte Gürtel. Vorne hat das Kleid noch aufgesetzte große Taschen. Der Beleg am Saum ist mehrfach abgesteppt, damit der Rock unten etwas […]

Winterkleid
Für dieses Kleid habe ich sehr viel Geduld gebraucht. Letztes Jahr im Februar hatte ich es angefangen in der Hoffnung, es noch vor Ende des Winters fertig zu bekommen. Das ist leider nicht passiert, und als das Wetter wärmer wurde, hatte ich keine Lust mehr, ein warmes Wollkleid zu nähen. So lag das Kleid für […]
Work in progress: Vogue 8667
