Current Obsession - Black & White frocks.
I have been eyeing off some lovely black and white frocks lately over at Modcloth and other such pretty sites and decided I need one... In gingham.
Twas just my luck when I happened to stumble upon some perfect black and white shiny gingham taffeta on ebay & won it for a steal! I had to start stitching as soon as it arrived.

This is the first complete dress that I have drafted myself and it turned out pretty good I think...
The only thing is that the neckline is about an inch too low, oops. I will have to be careful when & where I wear this number.
The fabric was a bit of a pain to sew with... so shiny and creasy....bleh!

But we got there in the end... after two zippers and some loss of hair...
Its completely lined in some light white cotton but I didn't get a picture. Silly me.
I plan to make this again in a gorgeous lemon print seersucker (Yes another ebay score, don't judge me!)
Think I'll raise the neckline this time so its good to wear out of the house... Tee hee
