Wanna-be-Seamstress

My sister in law gave me the coolest Christmas presents EVER. Tons of vintage patterns. I have adored looking at them, dreaming of all the possibilities, hoping that I had the skills to pull them off. Well, I finished the first of hopefully many today, and I have to say that I am (a little bit) proud. I just love it. I don’t really have anywhere to wear it, but I LOVE it. I got the fabric (about 6 yards) for 4 bucks at Goodwill. I got the trim at Jo-Ann’s. I actually wasn’t planning on using the trim, but ended up needing it to cover a few of my mistakes.




And for those of you who love vintage patterns like I do, Reachel recommended this amazing site to me. I’ve been staring at it for hours since then. Those Vogue Couture patterns are simply beautiful, really, I believe they are patterns for creating a work of art. Which one is your favorite?
And I apologize for the non-creative background. I need Brittney to take all my pictures for me!
