Hello Hive
Beautiful morning family, I hope Monday meets you well and the weather not to harsh on your skin.
One devil of distraction has been keeping me so occupied that am still to start work on the contest on ground.
Needlework jewelry which am looking forward to what I can achieve with fabrics.
Fabrics is my thing and I hope I won't miss out as my imaginations has been working on what I can achieve.
Down the line I wanted this to be my Needleworkmonday blog for today
A dress I disliked because of its color.
Brown is my most hated color and I dont ever want to wear anything in brown, so I damaged this fabrics and kept it in wait for days.
Now this post is supposed to be about my progress in the fashion industry. So I will spill a little regarding that.
Fashion was what I dared to learn when it became obvious I will be jobless in this country if I don't learn a skill to complement my school certificate.
Down the line for roughly 4years I encountered challenges that made me quit at some point, it was like I will never get to know this thing
Not my passion or something I love to do.
I damaged lots of fabrics and this dress was among the damages. I made a dress so bad that it could not pass through my head. It was unbearable 😭😂😄😁😭.
These days when I look at my progress, am just glad I never quit, it was a snail progress but something dropped in my mind everyday and am able to make better designs at sewing.
Tried to revisit this dress after laying for 3 solid years(It was used for one of my sewing practicals) to see if I could save it.
The fabric was a gift from my friends mum and I had to make her see that I cherish the gift by wearing it even though I don't like the color.
Now to how I made a dress that can't enter my head, only God knows
Maybe I got used to using what am taught without analyzing if it works for every style.
The neckline had this dimension
Front neckline 3" by 3" width and depth
Back neckline. 3" width by 1" depth.
So I went through the stress to rip off the seams of the dress and remake it all over again
I swear its very much easier to make a new outfits with my level of fashion understand now compared to the time I would use to rework an older dress.

I added extra strip around the neckline just to brighten up the brown color
I hope the stress is worth it and I can rock a brown color for a while.
Am just grateful that against all odd I keep making progress with my fashion training even if am crawling, someday I will get to the peak of this.
