  • I had seen a post recently on enchanted.rose.costumes Instagram which made me excited to make this dress too! It was an absolute treat to make this dress, it's so nice to actually make a dress I would enjoy in the long run!
    For this video, I decided to use an old recycled curtain I had found the week before in a second-hand shop, it was a great surprise to find out that the fabric was a 100% cotton.
    In the future I would still make some additional changes to the dress of I would ever remake this one again, The wrap dress on the back is still a tiny bit too long so it does spill out from underneath the skirt.
    But all with all I had a great pleasure while working on this!

    Materials I used are 100% cotton curtain, 100% cotton bias tape

    In 1957 my mother made this dress for herself and drafted a pattern for my 4 yr. old self. She put matching pockets on our matching dresses. The fabric was similar to the stripes on yours. I believe ours were cream with brown stripes. Mother sewed coffee cup on one pocket and a donut on the other. It is the first dress that I remember. Thank you for your video. Love your dress!

      Just watching these walkway dress pattern videos. I was 4 in 1957 too! Just ordered the pattern so I’ll see when it arrives. Don’t recall the name, but I saw my mama make this or a similar style for herself. She made many beautiful dresses for me.

    Beautiful workmanship. It’s what’s missing in the other Walkaway Dress videos out there.

      True great workmanship. But also great choice in fabric. Finding beautiful or decent fabric for apparel wear to sew has become a chore. That's why I don't see any

    I do not sew - avoid it like the plague, lol! But this video popped up and because I remember this pattern and my Mother & I having several dresses I had to watch - so happy I did!! The dress, your creating it, the filming/music all combined to make for an enjoyable period of reminiscing- I’m now 67 and wish I could find a seamstress to make me several. Growing up in the military we lived in several European countries in the 50’s-60’s - military rules dictated females must be in dresses/skirts (no pants/shorts) when out in the “civilian population) so I grew up having “quick change day dresses” ready - Feeling the need to recapture that girly feeling and stop wearing yoga pants all the time! I love picking out fabric and making my own ceramic/porcelain buttons though!

      Hey there C - I too am 67, and set myself against sewing early in life, though my mother loved it, needed to do it, and was good at it. My feelings about sewing were a resistance to the lot of women then. My mother was not happy being sidelined and put down, and I did not mean to grow up into those shoes. Also, I am clumsy. She died 35 years ago and I miss her more than I ever knew I could. Now I like to sew. I'm rough and ready at it, but it feels good. Give it go! My failure rate is high, I have to admit. I too love fabric, and believe those black tights should be resisted: - bring on colour, patterns, shapes, and individuality!!!!

    This calmed me down during a season depression esque episode :))) and although I don’t wear dresses this does inspire me for my own creations. Especially that bias tape being on the edges. So pretty!

    I made several dresses from this pattern. The buttons I changed into snaps or ribbons oder adhesive ribbon.
    I am convinced at this pattern.

      The Ribbon sounds like such a cute idea for tying it up on the front! Definitely will try that with a new dress

    I’m still watching but wanted to suggest two things about the videoing:
    1) please have your explanations last longer or be just a few words at a time to allow us to read them without having to pause the video.
    2) please make the size of the words much larger and a contrasting color to whatever the background is in those frames. Many times half the words were white on white and not readable.
    I hope this helps, as I really did want to see what you had to say as well.

    • @celestecostuming6432

    What keeps this from gaping (especially in the side area)? Is it difficult to get the front part on right?

    • @rose77778888
      @rose77778888 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The darts make it three dimensional. But I know a lot of people have problems getting the fit right with this pattern.

      I think one needs to stand on a t able and ha ve someone mark fhe hemline for this pattern. Id also make the inner skirt shorter than the outer one.
