Eximia from Sofilantjes
So this was my first pattern testing for myself, I am a large number of kg's heavier than before my kids and do not often stand in front of the camera. Made in French Terry I needed a FBA ( my first time trying one) and I lengthened the sleeves a little.
I'm not keen on round necklines, preferring V necks, but one challenging thing about pattern testing is not to deviate from the pattern. You can lengthen the body and sleeves but need to make the pattern as per the designer's vision.
I will try this pattern again maybe in a knit.
Pattern is available in English, Dutch and French

Patsy Party Dress - Rebecca Page
My second pattern testing and made XS high-low dress for my daughter. Princess seams, SBA andand li bodice with an invisible zipper all new experiences for me. I am really pleased with how this turned out, I did view you-tube and other sites for the SBA and invisible zip tutorials, well maybe more than once!
