Crushed Velvet Wrap Dress // Christmas Eve



For my last sewing project of 2017, I sewed up the best for last. I received some lovely crushed velvet in sage from Mily Mae Fabrics. I am so in love with everything velvet, especially in lighter pastel colors. Also, it feels and looks exquisite. I will definitely be sewing more projects with velvet this upcoming year.



For the dress I used the Mama Isabel pattern from Made for Mermaids. It was my first time making a wrap style dress, but thankfully the pattern instructions were very clear. The thing I loved about this pattern was the Duster Cardi Hack, so I can wear the Mama Isabel as a dress AND a duster! I love cardigans and kimonos, so this was amazing to hear. Since I am 5'2", I had to shorten the pattern. 

Overall, I loved making this dress. I also can't wait until the weather warms up a bit to style it as a duster. Oh and... MARY CHRISTMAS EVE!
