Knocking Off a Dress for When We Were Young

When Suz from Sewpony asked me to participate in her series, When We Were Young, during Knock it Off, I thought to myself, "Hmmm, how do I make this work?".  Well, it didn't take too long to figure out that knocking off is essentially what When We Were Young is about, only using a garment from your youth as inspiration.  So, that's precisely what I did.  And it was so fun!!  Come over to Sewpony to read more about the process (there's a mini tute), and more pics of my daughter in her new dress inspired by one of mine from the 1970s.



Back soon with today's Knock it Off guest...it's amazing!  You won't want to miss it!
