i just bought a pattern from fabricland, its a simplicity a-line retro dress
im starting ym portfolio work for application to ryerson, ocad, and hopefully FIT.
so of couse i cant just make a dress, i need to make it my own.
i was wondering, where do you guys come up with ideas for altering desings.
I realize i have so many options but i feel so immature in terms of design skills and know how
i dont know what prints to use or to use any... and i dont knwo how to add detailing.
i do know hwo to sew - basics of course. so i have a few questions:
if you are color blocking, i.e. using more htne on material for one peice of the dress constriction, how much allowance do you add tot he fabric for peiceing the materials together
also, if i wanted to hand draw details all over a white dress, what would be the best fabric, and pen to use?
