💕How I Sewed my Basic Midi Dress💕

Описание: Hi folks, in this weeks video I show how I sewed up my super basic summer midi dress with wrap bodice, flutter sleeves and ruffle skirt 💕. This is a super quick make and quite straightforward to put together and although basic has some interesting details👌. I'm super happy with how this has turned out and can see a few more versions of this one for the up and coming summer months👍. I hope that the video helps those of you that are thinking of sewing up something similar and you enjoy. Susanne 💕

Those of you following along over on my instastories will have seen the inspiration for this one and where you'll see my slightly tweaked polka dot version :
