Hy steemians Hope you all had a nice weekend.
Well i actually used mine to make a nice dress for my sister. And no doubt, she liked it.
This was is the top i sewed for her
Below are the procedures
, I Measure a piece of cloth of at least 6 inch. I measured from her shoulder with a tape and i added an allowance of 3 inch to it where it going be joined. it will be joined 1/1/2.
Second part, i measure an allowance of of 1⅔ inch. I joined it with 1/2 inch. Based on the chalk line, i cut out the part for the armpit so that the armpit won't be too tight for her to wear.
The lower piece of the material, i measured the length from the waist to cover the hip. Then i folded the material in a triangular format, then i measured the waist.
After cutting and sewing the pieces. i finally arrived at this:
It wasn't really perfect at first but with some adjustments, it was ready to wear. I feel happy for this
Happy needle work everyone. Thank for reading my post.
It looks great, @light1, and your sister looks very pleased with it :)
Did you use a commercial pattern or did you design it?

A beautiful dress you made. The colours are very bold, but suit your sister perfectly. I especially love the hem of this dress.
Happy needlework monday!

Hello @light1 and Welcome to #NeedleWorkMonday! We share our work and creations every Monday and support one another by commenting, giving feedback and sharing ideas, techniques etc.
We love seeing a project come to life so I really appreciate you sharing the process of this beautiful top that you made for your sister. I really love the fabric and colors and I love how you made the bottom to flare out right above her waist. She really looks darling in it! 😊
I’m curious to know if this was your own design as well.
Thank you so much for sharing with us this week. I hope you find the time to get around to viewing some of the other needlework post and meeting some other talented Steemians!! Looking forward
to seeing more of your work~

You did a beautiful job and you were very informative when it came to your procedure. It looks great on her, too. How special it is to be able to make something a loved one can wear and cherish.
I have a question for you, @light1 ~ how do you know how what to adjust your seam allowance to as you go along? Just curious why you chose the allowances you did/ how you know to adjust them accordingly.
