Hi folks, in this weeks video I show how I sewed my Midi Dress with Bishop Sleeves and Tiered Skirt ♥️ The fabric I used here was amongst the trickiest I have worked with and as such I had to get creative with techniques in order to achieve anywhere close to a neat finish 😩😞😩 and although this made the project way more lengthy than it needed to be I learned so much which for me makes for a very worth while project👌 I hope that those of you that are interested in making something similar enjoy and find the video useful.
