Good day creative hiver, how are you doing and how is our families I hope we are enjoying the end of the year celebration I’m happy to see this day.

Today I will like to share with you all this beautiful gown I made for my mummy for her new year gown . I thought of sewing Ankara fabric for but the cost of Ankara is very high so I had to buy this vintage material and the cost is still expensive but not to much .

I bought 2 and half trousers yard of material and I bought 1 trouser yard of satin and I choose this style for because the weather is cold.

I folded the material into four then I measure the neckline to be 3” width and 6” length then I slit the front piece and I took out 2” out from the from piece then replaced it with the satin .

After cutting the bodices I folded the remaining material for the sleeve , this style is a trending style that it going viral now and this is my first time of sewing it and with the look I think have made mistake in the bell sleeve but I know I will get perfect in another one I will made for my self.

I join the both side together then I place the satin from the back neckline after ironing it but I it doesn’t look neat and straight the way I want it to be . Have take note of my mistake I will try to get it right in my next attempt.

I'm sure the next one will be better, I really didn't notice the mistake you mentioned, but it happens a lot that only one person sees the mistake, happy new year, I loved the fabric :3

Thank you dear that front should look smoother than that😁
