making of garments

The making of the garments hasn't gone as smoothly and quickly as first anticipated! With the suede shorts being quite difficult to sew it was a slower process than I would have predicted however the final garment looks great.

With the dress however I incurred many more problems which were all to do with the fit. Unfortunately the way the pattern was cut it ended up being too tight an the bust and completely ruining the look and shape of the dress. I tried to save the problem by attempting to change the design of the front of the dress however this failed to make a big enough difference and therefore the only solution will be to remake the dress with two new pattern pieces and the rest of the existing pieces...
