I made a new dress! The fabric is a feedsack that I’m guessing is from the 40s, and it’s just amazing. There were a lot of rips and stains on it so I had to do a lot of piecing together.
The pattern I used was Simplicity 1435 if someone is interested, though I only used it for the bodice.
I love this dress so much, I honestly think it’s one of the most fantastic dresses I’ve seen. I’ve never seen a feedsack print I liked better, and it matches my huge flower earrings-I-tend-to-use-as-dress-clips so perfectly.
