I was really unhappy with the neck especially - I'm trying to cover it up with a scarf LOL. So I unpicked the stitching, rescued scraps from the bin and sewed a band around the neck. SOOO much better! I'll get a photo of the improved dress at some stage. Later I rescued more scraps to maybe do the same with the ends of the arms. Ideally since I was making my own dress I would LOVE to have had super long sleeves for the first time, like, ever! But there wasn't enough fabric! I was SO bummed about that!

What a great dress. I love the colour. You did so well with a knit. How did you do the neckline?
Love Mum
Yvette thats awesome!! Stretch isn't easy... and this fits so perfectly.... such a great job.
Love that broach too..Mardi x
it looks great! Especially for a dress you made without a pattern! Great work for rescuing the scraps and fixing the neck line! Looks sweet with your brooch :)
Well done miss clever. Looks super comfy too. Bummer bout the arms.
You're so clever Yvette...it looks great!!! I love your cute brooch too. :)
