Crinkled Dress

 I used the same pattern as a tiered long dress I made before.
This time fabric was short a bit, so I made it a knee-length dress.

 
I added this frill on the top of front, and I like it so much. :-)


Can you see this crinkle? I made it by myself!

At first, it was TOO voluminous just like the pregnant or a baloon !
(OH, I should take a before photo... what a stupid.. )
That was just because the fabric was stiff a bit.

I was thinking how to do with it, and I remembered a wonderful idea!!

  I got a dress wet in the water, made it twisted,
and left it under the sun one day.
 Just did this.


 
I got a good fit!!
I was satisfied with the result so much.

I highly recommend this way, but please note it can be only for cotton.
And do the same when you wash it.

Tiered Pullover


As after washed, it is tribbly wrinkled... :-(

Pattern is from Japanese pattern shop which sells e-patterns, 
and we can also buy the same fabrics as ones used in the sample photos.
I tried this shop for the first time.


 Unfinished frills and hem are cute, I think.

And it looks complicated, but in fact, it's very easy to make! 
It took only in an hour!

Heavenly Place

We had 6 straight holidays last week.
I had a chance to go to the park where I had desired to go for a long time at last!!
It is one of the national parks, Hitachi Kaihin Kouen
which is very famous for beautiful flowers this season. 

Narcissuses



Tulips and Muscari



and our main purpose was this extensive Nemophila hill !! :-)

 I felt as if I were in the heaven...

I wish to go there next year again.
