The finished @stylearc.bsky.social #SAHopeWovenDress 🌺✨

Obsessed with how this one turned out! #SewSky

First try-on 👀 The #SAHopeWovenDress is done in this beautiful organza jacquard 🌺

It’s see-through in places so I’ve also sewed up a #SAJunoSlipDress to wear underneath (almost done here but desperately needs a press!)

My current #sewing project is trying to recreate this #EmilyinParis #cobaltsuit. It’s a big one and the prep work has been A LOT but I’m still so jazzed about this project 💙✨ #sewsky
