Empire dress without sleeves and floor long – part one  – my summer dress 😊.

All of us who has ADHD knows what I mean!  So my next sewing project is an empire dress in full length. In a light fabric with wider sholders for warm summer days. I am “a bit allergic” to long sleeves 😆😆 in the summer.

My challenge is to get it floor long and sew an under skirt.

Here are the start of my summer dress.

While I was cutting out the fabric I realised I wouldn’t have enough fabric from one curtain so here am I using 3 curtains. And instead of sewing an undergown (skirt under) I am testing to sew the nice fabric on the inside of the dress.

Sewing June 1st in the evening, after a “bumpy-ride-day” (lots of back pain). I started with the turquoise fabric the only fabric I hadn’t done anything with so far.

If my back is better today, June 2nd, I hope to managed to sew all the insides so I can sew it all together. And start on the top part soon. Because I really want to be done before my holiday so I can bring it with me and wear it.

I am taking Holiday the 2nd week of July, the first propper Holiday in 8 years.
