Making a 1930s Inspired Slip Dress for Spring (with How-to!) | Sew With Sarai, Ep.1

The project I’m sharing with you today almost failed right out of the gate. I had a vision of taking the Grace dress pattern (https://www.seamwork.com/catalog/grace), and giving it a little bit more of a 1930s vibe by adding some gathering under the bust. And I found the perfect fabric to make it in! But I made a simple mistake that almost stopped me from making it at all. In the end it turned out beautifully (though with a few things I’d change for next time), but more importantly, I came away with some real lessons learned. Watch to find out what I learned, plus lots of tips for sewing bias cut garments! 💬 What would you have done in this situation (06:29)?
