Hello, my fashion lovers, how are you all doing today? I hope you had a great day. I'm excited to share this lovely craft I made for my sister and I.
Whlie packing for our relocation, I stumbled upon one of my mom's old knitted crochet pieces. I asked if she still needed it, and she said I could have it.
Meanwhile, my sister's item was a kimono gown, which I unfortunately didn't take pictures of. However, I'll share how I turned the kimono gown into two-piece outfit. Let's get creative.
MATERIAL USED:
Scissors
Tape
Knitted crochet material
Black and Brown thread
Machine needle
HOW I MADE A MAXI GOWN AND TURNED MY SISTER KIMONO GOWN INTO 2 PIECE OUTFIT
- Step 1
I spread the material on the floor and took my body measurements. Since it's a maxi gown, I cut it together.
- Step 2
I used my jeans skirt as a guide, tracing the flare shape onto the material with chalk and adding a 3- inch allowance
- Step 3
I went ahead and stitched both sides up with my machine.
- Step 4
After completing the main piece, I moved on to sew the sleeves. I laid the fabric on the floor, folded it into an A-line, and measured my armhole. To achieve a subtle flare, I used my round sleeve measurements with a slight addition for flare.
- Step 5
After cutting the sleeves, I placed the bodice on the floor to measure my armhole 9, in order to attach the sleeve to the bodice. After measuring the armhole, I went to my machine to stitch it up.
LET'S MOVE OVER TO MY SISTER'S KIMONO
- Step 6
This material on the floor was a kimono gown and since she wanted a two-piece outfit, I measured hip, waist and full length.
- Step 7
After taking her measurement, I placed the material on the floor, marked the pattern for cutting and pinned the skirt pieces together. Then, I moved to my machine to stitch it up.
- Step 8
After shaping it, I folded the waist side and sewed it, then inserted elastic into the folded part since my sister preferred no zipper, so elastic was used instead.
AND GUYS THIS IS MY FINAL RESULT
Simple yet classic is a great way to describe the maxi gown and two-piece outfit(Maxi skirt with jacket). You can pair them with canvas shoes, loafers or fancy flats slippers.
