Eastern dress in making
It is march, the temperature is getting higher, sunlight is an often guest at my apartment and my winter jacket has already been packed in a bag and is waiting for the next winter. Maybe I am too optimistic, but I feel the Spring is ahead of us. I would love to unpack my summer dresses and start wearing jeans jackets as the main garment in my outfits.

My yellow corduroy fabric for the Eastern dress. It is made out of 100 % cotton. |
The pattern I used for this dress is been used for at least two other
dresses I made. This time I made one modification in the front bodice
part, s you can see on the picture below. I created three six parts
bosice instad of two part one. By the way, I still have problems with
sewing darts. The skirt is obviously a long one as I hope I will wear
maxi dressses more often.

I divided a bodice in three parts in the fornt and three part at the back. |
The
corduroy is a nice fabric to sew. The only problem is, that the small
parts of one are everywhere. Tip for the future - using an overlock as
soon as possible! I am not sure now, if I should sew a lining under the
gournment or finish the dress with a piping. I will give me few days to
think about it.
For the whole dress I used 2 meters of fabric.
