Hello, everyone! I know I'm new here but I thought I'd jump in right off the bat for some advice. I have a beautiful piece of olive green boiled wool that's been hiding in my stash for about 10…Continue

The finished dress
"Your dress is lovely! I've see that dress on Pinterest, you've done a beautiful job with your replica!"
First piece of the new year (and it's for me)!
One of my goals this year is to make more everyday wardrobe items for myself.
