52 in 1: WEEK 10 - "blue dress" sew along





This week, I "sewed along" with Kojo Designs! Sweet sisters Kirsten and Jordan both contribute to this blog and whipped up a few-days-long tutorial dubbed the "Blue Dress Sew Along". Over the course of about a week, they provided a shopping list and step by step instructions to make a cute, belted, strapless summer dress. So fun! It was pretty easy to make, especially considering that this is the first dress I ever sewed for myself.


I made a fun belt and a matching yellow belt (not pictured). I love it!


Getting my picture taken is probably my LEAST favorite thing in the whole world, and it took a lot of guts for me to actually "model" the dress. So embarrassing. A super model I am not! Oh well. At least I have a pretty new dress!
