Hello Hive
It's pinky Saturday and I have just sewn this simple and lovely piece 🩷 🩷 🩷 I have been bothered about what choir uniforms more recently as been a member laid some responsibilities on me. If i desire to minister in church and to bless people in songs then I must be willing to to abide by every choir rules including virtuous dressing that will encourage and draw people to God and righteousness rather than make people find fault in God by my lifestyle.
The choir often appear beautiful and radiant each time we appear in modest uniforms. Sometimes we wear the same fabric and other times we they select color.
For this week we are to appear in pink outfits with a choice of wedding a touch of white as desired.
It was a blessing to me when I found this fabric in my piece. One pink outfits I have damaged in my early days of fashion as an apprentice.
Thank goodness I didn't discard this away because of the wrong cutting. I took out the fabric, and thought of what best to make with it since it was only a meter.
Starting with the back block, I first made a pattern of my current measurements on used paper. I want this to be perfect at all cost. Next the pattern was used to cut the fabric by readjusting the previous measurements and measuring out something with a better fitting. This time around everything is so perfect.
Next I slashed the armhole line and placed this on the front block.
With a better understanding of how to cut cowl neckline now, this come out pretty as well
Sewing
The sewing part has me first turning the necklines in then then stitching the shoulder and then hoping the side seams
The heming were done pretty well then we moved to the sleeve
I picked out a piece of material that has this pink poccal dot to use as sleeve. It wasn't enough i would have almost cut my fingers to make it do. But I kept going every pieces until it formed a whole piece, you will hardly know that this sleeves was from tiny scraps.
I then hemmed, stitched and attached it to my dress.
There is no light to iron this out for a final finishing but hopefully I will get some light before tomorrow to today up this dress. And most likely a white color ladies dress will also sit perfectly on this.
