♥️How I Sewed my Summer Shift Dress with Smocked Neckline♥️

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hi folks, in this weeks video I show how I sewed my Summer Shift Dress with Smocked Neckline detail ♥️♥️♥️ I tried out a couple of new, to me, techniques on this project with the smocking and the lapped zip and I’m super happy I did as I will 100% use these again in future projects👍. I hope that those of you interested in sewing something similar enjoy and find the video useful. Susanne 💕

    This is one of my favorites. I kept wondering how you were going to finish that raw edge of the neckline piece - then you enclosed it with the facing! You make that lapped zip look so easy.
