My sister and I had a very specific vision for my maternity photo shoot.  We wanted something simple, minimal and with a lifestyle vibe. We wanted something that fit in with my usual style.

They would obviously need to be taken in my home.  And we couldn't get past the idea of linen.  The maternity photo shoot needed the loose weave, minimal, vintage look of linen.

So linen I sought.

And you know what I found?  Linen dresses are EXPENSIVE. Being the DIY'er that I am, it only took a moment for me to decide I could tackle making my own linen maternity dress.

In the how to make a dress video tutorial below, you will learn how to copy your own clothes to make your own dress pattern.  You will see the mechanics behind how a dress is put together.  You can use the techniques to make a maternity dress. If you trace a non-maternity shirt, you can also make a regular fitting dress as well. You can apply it to making kids clothes.

Thank you so much for stopping by the farmhouse!

Have you ever sewn clothing before?  Let me know in the comments below.

I am 35 weeks pregnant in these photos. I am planning to have another home birth around December 3rd.  Although, knowing my body and my babies, it will be at least a week later than that! ;)

I am looking forward to meeting my little munchkin and finding out the gender of the tie-breaker baby.  Right now we have two of each.

I look forward to hearing about the dresses you make!
