Sewing is our stone experience foundation which stands forever, the roof of establishment, as long as sewing is ongoing process therefore our learning and experience is still ongoing.
I love and enjoy sewing a beautiful outfit for my baby because i really want to use as my catalogue, and i feel so excited because she gave me more customers, this time around i was searching for a style on friends phone so i discover that i didn't sew a joining flay gown for her before, so i decided to go with the style, although i didn't have enough fabric for the style, i remember this fabric that i sew my client and she gave me the remaining to sew for my baby, and it is the to sew this style for her.
Cutting and Sewing process
I started with the half length process, (the princess dart) i firstly used the lining to cut in of any mistake, i folded the lining in two i measured her half lenth our, measured her burst and body divided by 4 and i have her normal shape plus 2 inches, and i quickly go up and measured her shoulder, from her shoulder down to 5 inches which is her hamhold, after having all the measurement with her body shape i measured her dart which is 4 inches width and the length is from the down part of the dress straight to her nipple point cough to her hamhold. After finishing with the drafting i cut it out, after cutting out the lining i placed the fabric and cut the fabric out.

After finishing with the cutting i moved ahead and turn them with lining.
After turning them, i picked out the front part and used my black bias and design the dart point.

The flay cutting process
Firstly i folded the fabric in to four and i take the full measurements that I'm working with, after that i devide her body into four and cut it out.

This is the front cutting
Because there will be a zip at the back, so i folded the back in two and cut it open intwo places and i just open the front so i will be able to join is at the side.
After cutting it i turn them with lining
