Feeling slightly calmer having already patterned, toiled and manufactured, 2/5 garments, only 3 to go!

The next garment i worked on was the Clear Panel Dress. 

For this pattern, toile and manufacture, I used a previous pattern I had already created for the orange shoulder dress Explained in a previous post. I traced the block dress and split into sections adding 1CM SA.

For the sleeve panel, I traced round an existing pattern piece extending the width by 15CM. I manufactured the toile with no difficult areas.

I cut out in my final fabric and manufactured together overlocking where required. I top stitched all seams in the direction where they would not be shown through the PVC.

Finally I inserted the zip with no difficulties. The zip is showing through the clear panels and only required top stitching. 

3 DOWN 2 TO GO!
