Challenge number 3256: sewing an evening dress





Another new thing to do for an upcoming party I, together with my sisters and aunt, am organising.

The most important part of it all- what am I going to wear?

I have been looking any every nook and cranny, for the perfect dress. I mulled over different combinations:

1960's red velvet with lace. Ebay 



1960s's 'twiggy' dress Ebay

A little too drab, maybe, for a formal evening.....(even with bling)

So I went to Spotlight and picked out this pattern:

vintage vogue
With this fabric:

heavy cotton fabric


All because I own these shoes:

mind the tiny house behind

Its funny how shoes manage to dictate an outfit.

Challenge accepted.
