Bienvenidos a mi blog amigas costureras ✨💓 | Welcome to my blog, sewing friends ✨💓.

Good evening dear friends, it's a pleasure to greet you. I want to show you how I made this beautiful dress to wear at home with non-stretch fabric and elastic at the waist. Of course, I used an elastic band that is approximately 1 cm wide because my machine really doesn't grip the elastic thread and it's a shame because I've always wanted to work with this type of thread in this type of garments like beach dresses that I love so much, but we'll work with what we have, so I have this type of elastic that I will use for this dress at the waist and the back. If you would like to appreciate this type of garments and see the process, I invite you to stay for a few minutes to appreciate the result, you will like it a lot, I assure you 😉.

Pasos a seguir: | Steps to follow:

Paso 01

Step 01

We will start by cutting the fabrics in this case I had a fabric from a long skirt and I recycled it to make this dress, I left the hem part down I simply cut the waist piece above and unstitched the zipper, then I took the ruler and from top to bottom I will mark 15 cm long and we will draw a horizontal line with the chalk because we will start sewing from there up the elastic around the entire outline of my dress in that part, then we cut the straps 9 cm wide x 30 cm long, and we start by sewing the edge of the dress piece above in this case I used my overclock you can use zig zag stitching.

Step 02

Now we sew the elastic that goes around the top part where we sewed the edge of the dress. There we will place the elastic, stretch it and sew it. Then we will sew the elastic around the waist up to the top around the entire perimeter with a straight seam, stretching it little by little. Then, after sewing the waist part of the front waist of the dress, we do not sew the bust part, we only sew the entire elastic around the back waist of the dress to hold this part in place.

Step 03

I then proceed to sew the other elastic on top of the dress to make it double, and we will be sewing the straps along the edge, we turn them over with a tape tool and iron it for a better finish, then we will be placing it from back to front, sewing them well.

Step 04

On the front we are going to sew the buttons, in this case I sewed some little flower buttons that I loved so much and I felt that this type of buttons would be good because of the flower print on the fabric, which is very beautiful 😍🌸, this is how we finished sewing this dress.
