The Process
At first, I had no idea wad to do..
But I had to start somewhere.
So I asked her, if she wanted a skirt, a dress or wad?
1st she said skirt, then she said shorts but I can't sew pants yet.
In the end we settled for a dress.
Still not knowing wad to do next.
But I had to do something.. anything coz then I only had barely a 7 days to design, draft the pattern and sew the entire dress from scratch.
So I asked her what's her fav colour.
She pointed to a dress she already has (which is our back up plan btw, in case I couldn't finish the dress in time), saying she likes pink, dark pink, not light pink. Absolutely hates light pink.
There! I have it.
An all-pink dress it is.
Next, I went down to buy fabrics.
I went to every shop asking for pink fabrics.
Then did I know her fav color is actually called Fuchsia.
My friends who went along with me, one after another asked me,
"So you know wad design you want for the dress already?"
"You have a design in mind?"
I gave them all a quick "No?"
Then continued digging for Fuchsia fabrics.
Alas, I bought a cotton bland Fuchsia and a chiffon Fuchsia.
Little by little during the fabric hunting process, the look of the dress is in my head already.
Designing, done.
Next, you can see for yourself.. wad I went thro..
The End Product. Taa-Daa!!
