As you may have seen in previous post's I have dabbled in making a few top's and dresses. The latest one, suprise suprise, is again a little linen number but this time it required a bit of lace detailing as well. The Tessuti award's run every year and this will be the second time I have entered. Previous year's have seen the competition run as a 'Little Black Dress,' which alway's manages to trip me up, when it comes to designing a garment in black I inevitably hit the brick wall. Yet I live in Melbourne, go figure, the city is renowned for it. Give me white any day!
Soooo, after a few day's at home measuring out folds and ironing and re-ironing and sewing and ironing (when there's linen involved you have to alway's have an iron at hand, because it creases in front of your eyes) and fusing. The end result is below. If you like it, please head to tessutiawards.com.au and vote for me as there's a fabric voucher up for grab's which I would love to get my hand's on!
