5th+6th week (what I accomplished)

I definitely got a lot done these past 2 weeks. I am so close to finishing the dress, I just need to stitch a few more things and it will be finished. I decided to add a lining in the dress using the same fabric which was so difficult, I basically had to make the same dress twice. The fabric I am using with the dress isnt the best, it isnt real silk so it is even harder to work with than regular silk because it is so slippery. Last week I went to the city with my mom and bought some more fabric for my next dresses that I will design. I bought REAL black and a very dark gray silk. I also bought some chinese silk that is red with some gold detailing. I want to use that as a lining inside of a black blazer that I have from a thrift store. I figured out my next 2 designs and I am very excited to start those. I have sketched both of them out and I feel like they will be really nice. I also bought some stingray skin for one of the dresses, I will probably use it on the front of the dress which should be interesting.
