Party Dress from Butterick B5982

Hello~!

I have just made my dress for new years party.

This dress's pattern is from Butterick B5982.

Here is the dress :)

Originally I wanted to modify the pattern like 1950 style. But I did't have a time for modify - just made as simple. However it took 2 days.. I'm not so fast dressmaker..
It's already 28th. Nearly new year.

Wish you have a nice new year.

Have a nice evening,

Yasuko
P.S. This dress was donated to Charity shop in Dec 2016

Men's Shirts - Ready for party!

Merry Christmas!

We had a nice Christmas lunch at Father in law's and my sister in law did very good job.. (I feel I'm a lazy sister in law.. )

Anyway, we had a nice time with family and Today was a sewing day.

Now I have done my husband's shirts and it ready for wearing for party!

I actually have never done button part before - so I was a little nervous I could make a button hole perfectly.
Of course my brother sewing machine has button hole function - so I have read the instruction carefully and did practises 4 or 5 times..

Yay! I have made button holes! I'm so happy..

My husband is so pleased this shirts and he discovered his ordered shirts was shipped yesterday from Shanghai (We expected shirts was made in somewhere in China..).
He will have TWO shirts for party.. Lucky him.

From tomorrow, I rush to make my party dress and ready for new years party..(hopefully)

Have a nice boxing day!

Merry Christmas! and men's shirts

Merry Christmas!

What I was doing last a couple days?

I've been making my husband's party shirt.

His order hasn't arrived and the online shop says ''Your order is now in production'.
so what? You don't give us 'when will be ready'???
We know my husband's shirts is in production but we want to know when they will dispatch it...

So! As I'm a good wife, I have bought black fabric and pattern.

However I traced a pattern from his shirts. ;-)

It's nearly done. I just need to add cuff and button!!

I will finish it after Christmas.

Have a nice Christmas!

Sayonara!
