Hi Folks, in this weeks video I show how I sewed up my summer maxi dress with twist detail. I couldn’t be happier with how this has turned out, its super casual and comfortable. There’s a little bit of extra work required matching the stripes but for me totally worth it👍👍👍 love, love, love this one ♥️♥️♥️. For those of you interested in pattering I’ve uploaded 2 videos on how I patterned twist variants, see links below 👍 I hope you enjoy and find the video useful. Susanne💕
Heres a tip for those of you thinking of sewing something similar, sew the neck binding before sewing up the centre front seam, it will make construction so much easier👍👍👍
