Sewing for spring

On the sewing table this week I have a couple of beauty's. I'm still waiting on pay day so I can buy some lining and zips.. In fact stock up on the essentials that are zips and lining :) I'm really liking the new direction of how I design and what I want to make. A lot of designs I've been seeing lately are not particularly flattering to the female body so I really want to change that up, especially in my local area. The girls here don't really dress to suit their body to put it nicely.
 Anyway onto the dresses, the main design I will be doing will be the classic tea dress, I love this style purely because every woman looks great in it, nipped in at the waist to show those curves and depending on the cut of the bodice you can have some cleavage on show or you back on show.

Sorry for the poor quality pictures, I will one day take exquisite photo's but until then you'll have to deal with my poorly edited Iphone pics. This dress is stunning in person and it isn't even completed yet, it's a white fabric with a lilac floral motif as well as a hidden white damask print, it is a lot more subtle in person but the flash made it stand out more.

This next dress is a gorgeous fitted pencil dress, I think that's the correct term anyway. This dress needs a lining because the fabric is quite thin but how amazing is the print! I thought the floral motif would be too much but I think its just perfect and when I thought I only had a small amount left I found a tonne in my fabric box!! Amazing!
