Pattern Cutting

I began with a basic dress block, I had to decide where the bodice(top) of the dress would start and finish e.g where it would sit on the body. Once that was determined I simply removed the darts and cut out my pattern pieces. I kept my spec drawing close by to keep referring back too.

Now I have my bodice I moved onto Makeing the panels for my roller coaster track inspired bottom of the dress. 

I made a rough pattern and pinned in place to see if I was happy with the length and shape.

Turns out that I was satisfied with look of it so made a sample up and here's how it looks. I've also decided to make a tutu, the tutu you see in the photo is 10 meters of fabric however I want it twice the size! Which means lots if fabric.Agghhh!

iPad illustration

I originally got the outline of this illustration from Pinterest and fell so in love with that I made it my own using the APP 'art set' on my mini iPad. This app was suggested to me by the company 'themesparx' who also use a software similar however this one was easier for me as I'm a beginner.
