Almost Reversible Dress...My Design Process | Newlook 6482
Here is a simple project that took a little thought to finalize. In my design process, most often I draw up a design before I sew it up, in order to help me visualize the look before I use my fabrics in the final design. If I come across a pattern that has a basic design, it becomes my canvas for designing what I want. But let's be clear, the design doesn't take shape until I've had time to doodle around the line drawing while giving my creative juices a chance to birth something wonderful. When I sew with a print, the print speaks to me and directs my thoughts to a design. In the case of a wonderful solid, I am free to do whatever, or maybe even embellish. In the case of this dress pattern...it was ripe for any design I could imagine. And this is what I imagined....
