What happens when a child tags you as a magician because of your sewing skills, I'm sure you are going to find it startling at first then funny, heart-warming, and exciting at the same time, as I sure did, I felt all of the above emotions, and I must give the child kudos for her complementing skills lol.

How it all started

So, My friend's children were given some fabric in their school to make a simple dress out of it, which they were going to serve as their Friday wears to school, instead of their usual uniform, she wanted something loose fitting but fitted, I hope you understand me, she repeated frequently 😂, after many talks, I calmed her a bit and told her to allow me to do the magic and not worry since she couldn't choose a style, not knowing her daughters took my last words to heart.

The magical process

I made an A-shape bodice pattern and also cut out each facing for both the front and back

Next, I joined the two patterns by the sides and shoulder and added pockets to the sides.

Continuing, I cut out a long strip of fabric, measurement gotten by multiplying the hem/base of the gown ×3,

After which I pleated the strip to the main fabric

For the sleeves, I cut out a basic puff sleeve pattern which I joined to the bodice as the final process.

And Abracadabra I made magic ✨ sewing, they fitted their dress happily and exclaimed "Wow! Aunty, so you do perform magic" lol, that statement made my day hehe,

the most exciting thing she loved about the dresses are the pockets and pleats, receiving a satisfying review, especially from children is so heartwarming

I love the way children express themselves. I think it’s so cute they call your sewing magic because I bet they are truly amazed by your work.

I love how easy you made this look. The dresses turned out simply cute. I love those puff sleeves ~
