Materials needed:
1. Sewing machine
2. Dressmakers’ pins
3. Measuring tape
4. 3 yards of 45″ width fabric ( Depending on the desired length of your
kaftan)
5. A pencil
6. Your fave top or dress
To determine the amount of fabric needed, take your favourite dress and measure the length using the method shown below. Then double the measurement.
To date, I have completed 3 dresses and I have 3 more to go. The struggle is real, especially when this isn’t my full-time job. My dream, and hopefully by 2022 I will be able to do my hobby full time. I also need to invest in a heavy duty sewing machine plus an overlock machine preferably. If not, just a heavy duty sewing machine will be able to do wonders.
When I saw our pretty December girl wearing a dress that I have sewn, I felt so happy, proud and satisfied. She really loves the dress and that it fits her beautifully. To be honest, I still have a lot to learn when it comes to sewing. I am just glad that i get to make something to make someone look extra pretty and confident 🙂
