Another day, another dress! This time something 1950's inspired. I think the end result is super cute and it was a lot of fun to make!




The fabrics used in this video are from Jo-anns. I used three yards of both the polka dot fabric and the cotton.

This is the dress that inspired me was sold, so I can't link to it, but it was from this shop! etsy.com/shop/OverAttiredVintage

Also since I did it in this video I wanted to mention that sewing over pins is bad! It’s a nasty habit I have and one I don’t work too hard to kick since it makes sewing so much faster. Personally i’ve only broken one or two needles that way in the entire time i’ve been sewing, so that isn’t a major concern of mine. But it isn’t something I would recommend doing!
