Hello Darlings!
If you haven’t jumped on board for the Spring/Summer Palette Challenge, it’s not too late! Speaking of Palette Challenge, if you checked out the Colette blog today, you may have noticed a familiar image. (Spoiler alert, it’s my mood board! I’m so honored!)
Anywho, here is a quick peek of the first dress that I’ve completed for the challenge.
It’s Simplicity Pattern #0345 for Project Runway, (this is the old packaging of the same pattern) with another custom belt by me. I sense a belt tutorial coming up soon! 
I took all of the photos for the belt tutorial earlier today, but I still need to piece them all together with the instructions, so hang tight! Sooooon!
xo
Such a pretty dress. Such a pretty girl! You ARE amazing!
LOVE. A LOT.
I’m awfully behind on my blogs, I love the dress! And your shoes… tell me more about your shoes, please!! (I should have been signed in as Stacie Chadwick. UGH TOO MANY TWITTER ACCOUNTS!!)
Ohhhh that’s so cute!! I vote for a belt tutorial!! I really like this idea!
Super cute! I love this!
adore this … the fabric … the style … but especially the ric rac hem .. and the belt! look forward to the tutorial
:
Love it.
Woweeeeeeeee! What an awesome dress – it is totally fab & I love the use of rick rack (I would say that wouldn’t I?!)
Thanks for leaving me a comment, it is so lovely to visit your blog, I’m really enjoying your styling
The belt definitely makes the dress. It is so wide but so amazingly awesome!
Could you be any more talented or lovely?! I think not!
So cute! And love the belt. I’m excited for the tutorial!
so cute! Your version is a million times better than the ones on the packaging!
WOW that was fast!! Congrats on having your palette chosen to be featured! And I love that belt too – you truly are the Belt Master
Thank you! I do love this belt, but the back side of it is SO messy! I used crazy thick interfacing and therefore couldn’t sew it inside out and flip it to the right side. You’ll see. But I almost want to make another one cuz I’m kinda embarrassed of this one haha. It was definitely a learning experience with the interfacing. You better hold off on the belt master title
SO cute! You are so quick, already completing projects for the challenge!
I’m totally stalling on craft fair sewing which is soooo bad of me. But I can’t help it! All I want to do is make dresses!! Haha
CUTE! I love navy & red so much.
Thanks! I do feel it’s a pretty classy combo
Adorable! I love pairing navy with red. I so need this pattern. Every dress I’ve seen in this pattern looks completely different from the other.
Thanks
Yeah there are a TON of options for this dress! Sleeves, no sleeves, collar, no collar, or sleeves AND the collar etc. It’s a great pattern.
Love it! You are a natural. =)
Thank you!
Eee! This is so perfect for summer. The color combination makes it seem like you should be frolicking around on a sailboat or doing something equally summer-y and glamourous. I love your palette and can’t wait to see more SPC-garments!
I would love to be frolicking around on a sailboat! …I need to make some friends with sailboats
I’d love to have a whole closet full of handmade dresses by the end of summer. We’ll see!
So, this is going to be included in your care package to me, right?
Once I’m done with this craft fair, I would love to start making dresses for people! It would be hard to ensure a perfect fit if you couldn’t be here to try it on, but it was a really simple dress to make AND it has pockets! Score.
Hehe I was totally kidding! I just loved it so much
but it looks so perfect on you, it’s amazing!
