Color-blocking with Butterick 5677 Part 1


With commitment comes  responsibility right. Based on my previous post on Fearless February  that I will try as much as possible to update my blog regularly, so am starting the challenge with Butterick 5677 pattern.

This is a well drafted pattern, the center back piece pattern was drafted to follow the back curve, which eliminates the need for a sway back adjustment. 

So far these are what have done
1. Dress sewn and zipper in (not exposed zipper)
2. Lining in progress
3. Basted the back and the front together to check fit, fine so far

Did I mention Ponte knit is so good to sew? it's such a lovely fabric

 Full review to follow after.;

Have a great week everyone.
