Sew little time...

In my first post i showed some lovely patterns that i had bought, i recently went to ikea and bought some material as i thought it would be cheaper than going to a fabric shop, i know their fabric aren't really ment for clothes but they have some wonderful fabrics and if thing went wrong i wasnt too out of pocket. The 3 fabrics below are all 150x200cm and the heart one was 120x300cm, totalling just under £30.


As soon as i got back i started cutting out the pattern that i wanted to make (simplicity 2688)  i got quite far into making the dress, but lately i havent been paying much attention to it as ive been working so much and been knitting a bit more instead.
I think it's going pretty well considering it's the first thing ive sewn since high school.

I think i shall put some effort into trying to finish it this weekend, i only have to sew the pockets, pleats, zip and hem the skirt.
I will hopefully be posting on the finished dress soon :)
