Dress 3

In the 3rd dress I wanted to make the Frock but I didn't know how to make the pattern of the frock then I tried to search some dresses.

After that I tried to search the pattern of dresses but I couldn't get something so I tried to make the pattern by my own.First I trace the front basic bodice block.

And from the waist I extended 28cm and I keep the width of hem line 60cm .

I make my neck line 4cm away from the actual neck line of basic bodice block.

And after that I make my neck line width 6cm and make it smooth with the pattern master.

And after that in my hem line I mark a 10cm point on the side seam and on the right angle I joined it with the hem line and make it curve free hand after that I make it smooth with the pattern master. 

And then I wanted to add gathers on the neck line so I just give clashes on my neck line and cut the slashes.

I gave the 3cm gap in ever slash to give it more volume and make it smooth with pattern master.

After that I gave the seam allowance of 1cm and my neck line pattern was done.

And I keep the old one pattern as well if my stitching goes wrong so i got something with me to correct it .

And after completing my front I worked on back just trace the block and extended the length 28cm and on the hem line gave the width of 60 cm and on the side seam line I mark a point 10cm and join it with the hem line on right angle and smooth it with the pattern master.

After that I trace the pattern for sleeve cause before this dress I didn't tried so I trace the sleeve block and I wanted to make small sleeves so I divided my sleeve portion into some parts.

 I gave the numbers to the slashes otherwise it will b mixed up and really hard to organize them again and after  that I gave the gap of 1.5cm in each and make it smooth with the pattern master.

And give the seam allowance as well of 1 cm.

After that I started to cut the patterns on fabric.

First of all I stitched the darts of back.

After that I stitched the side seams.

And then I gathered my neck line and stitched it with the front.

After that I gave the gather on my sleeve and attached it with the arm whole and I was thinking it must be very difficult part but was very easy to handle.

when I was done with the sleeve and dress I fold the hem line which was having 3cm seam allowance.

Then I made a bow take a rectangular piece of fabric and fold it and stitch it and then fold it to hide the all stitches and pass a thread from between in it and pull it and it gave me the look of bow .

And then I made the waist belt I measure the waist from the meniquin and made the belt and stitched the bow with it and place the hooks and lops to close the belt.

I place the dress on the menniquin and was looking good and after that I put some stars on it with the thread.

 And I asked my friend to do the modeling for my dress and she did so and dress was looking alight at least I tried to do so rather then leaning things without doing the experiment.
