STARTING MY FINAL FROWNING TOP...

I have started constructing my frowning top making it using 7 panels. I used two different flat weaves as I preferred it that way whilst toiling. I constructed these 7 panels and inserted the zip so similar to the dress all I need to do is sew on the circles. I am pleased how the panels have turned out and realised that the colours work well together. What do you think?

STARTING MY FINAL COLLECTION...

After completing my toiles I finally have moved onto the task of creating my final collection. I started with one of the easiest designs to get it out of the way - the DESERTING DRESS. I made sure I took my time and over locked every seam. I then placed on the circles to the correct composition and pinned them securely. I still need to sew them to the fabric but should do that when I am sure I want them in that place. I am very pleased with the final outcome so far and am surprised how neat I have been and I have done all the steps in a logical order. All I needed to do was sew the darts, sew side and shoulder seams and insert the invisible zip, now all I have to do is sew the circles on and finish the dress and it will be done. What do you reckon?
