Hello everyone! I hope you all had an amazing weekend. Today I’m sharing a post that feels quite special to me. It’s been about two years since I last made something, and I can’t believe it’s been that long!
Since I graduated, I haven’t really made anything because I didn’t have the right equipment. I still dream about those university studios filled with endless sewing machines and fabric everywhere. But last week I finally decided that’s it — enough complaining! So I bought myself an overlocker machine. Yay!
As a little comeback project, I decided to start with something simple and classic. I bought some linen fabric and wooden buttons and made this cute white linen dress — perfect for summer, holidays, or the beach. It took me a full day to make, and I’m so happy with how it turned out. I tried to sew it as neatly as possible, and I think the result is really satisfying!
I was planning to add two front pockets, but I didn’t have enough fabric (I literally used every inch). I also made it slightly loose-fitting because I didn’t want to use too many buttons and risk any gaping around the bust or stretching.
Anyway, I hope you like it! I’m so happy to be back to sewing again. Let me know in the comments what you think about this linen dress — would you wear it?
