Hello Everyone,

Hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving holiday! Mine was fantastic and I learned to prepare one of my favorite salad: Arugula and Roasted Pear Salad.

I am extremely excited about today’s post because I am wearing my own creation, the very first dress I have ever sewn – an African print skater dress. I have always wanted to learn to design and sew, so I bought a sewing machine a few months ago, and I have been taking advantage of YouTube tutorials to learn the basics. For this dress, I combined the basic bodice pattern from a book by Tanya Whelan called “Sew Many Dresses, Sew Little Time: The Ultimate Dressmaking Guide”, and a circle skirt pattern from here.

Hope you like my dress. I am really looking forward to many more creations and I will be sharing my journey with you here.

Thanks for visiting

Have a great weekend!
