#memademay 25 - comfiest outfit. This stretch sateen dress is so comfy and has been worn so many times it's starting to fade now.

A brown and beige check dress with buttons on the bodice.

#memademay Day 21 - print matching
A second appearance of this check B6412. I normally don't worry about pattern matching, but tried hard to match the checks for this dress.

#memademay Day 20 with @charmpatterns.bsky.social, knit fabric. I've made several of these Sophia tops in cotton spandex knit. I do have plans for the full dress some time in the future.

#memademay day 18 - little black dress. I didn't have anything Gertie for lingerie/pyjamas yesterday. Or little black dress really. But here's a floral print B6412 on charcoal/black base.

#memademay Day 17 - favourite pattern. I think it's Maria and it's predecessor the Princess seam bodice. I've made a ton of these. I used the school uniform skirt on this one.

Madeline dress from Charm Patterns.
Fabric is stretch cotton sateen from Spotlight Australia.
The gores are in plain quilting cotton in aubergine (cut on bias)

Overall I'm really happy with it!

This is the Sophia dress from Charm Patterns turned in to a top.

Getting close to finishing this Madeline dress from Charm Patterns. I've procrastinated on the last bit because I needed to figure out how to finish the skirt inserts with a lining (original uses facings and a waist stay)

Getting close-ish to finishing my Madeline dress. Remembered to sew in a label, and I sewed the lining in a different way to usual for me.
