My latest make for the Minerva Crafts Blogger Network is now live and I’m really pleased to be talking about The Washi Dress, which is a dress that I have been wanting to make for a long time.
As always with my Minerva makes, I will link the full review here and you can read all about it over at Minerva Crafts.
Using this really cute ditsy floral cotton poplin gives it a vintage feel, and it worked out really great – the fabric has a nice amount of body to hold the skirt pleats beautifully.
I chose to purchase the expansion pack from Made By Rae which gave me the small bow feature at the neckline. The expansion pack gives you a couple of bow options, a collar and sleeve variations too.
The shirring technique used at the back of the dress was great fun to sew and it makes for a really comfortable fit.
Unfortunately this month will be my last make for the Minerva Crafts Blogger Network for the time being – in order for me to focus on my jewellery business I am taking a break from the Blogger Network but do hope to dip in and out of occasional blog posts as part of the Minerva Makers team.
Huge thanks to all at Minerva for their wonderful support and generous supplies that have been sent to me to review over the last couple of years.
Take care, and I’ll be back soon,
Kathy x
