DRESSMAKING full circle
I couldn't resist whipping something up for my holiday to Wales. I wanted something super easy and material from the stash. So here we have it the first ever pattern I used New Look 6890, I was immensely proud of my first creation and still wear it alot.This time I made the version with long sleeves and I think I made a better job of the neck line, I also added a lacy trim which is most unlike me but I'm impressed how it has transformed my top and plan to use more.My new version is very 70s smock like (MrPB actually laughed aloud when I first showed him!) but when I'm wearing it I just love it, so it's fast becoming a summer favourite!
