The Road to a #MeMade Wardrobe: Vogue 1633
I wanted this pattern not only because it’s beautiful, but because I love warm colors and the sample garment on the cover was made in a great pumpkin color. I decided before I made it to the register that I would make this in a delicious knit to wear to Friendsgiving dinner. Please note, at that moment I had zero Friendsgiving plans.
Pattern: MISSES' DRESS
Fabric: Riveria Stripe - ML260075 - Orange / Green / Red / Multi from Michael Levine
Style: Rushed Flounce Dress
Vintage/Contemporary: Contemporary
Pattern Edits:
1. The arm cuffs were supposed to have a vent and buttons but I wanted them to hang down on my hands a bit and not be so fitted, so I just eliminated the buttons.
Lessons Learned:
1. Sweater knits are a bit of a nightmare. I have to be careful what stitches and threads I’m using when working with such a spongey fabric.
