    Extend a Little Black Dress

    Plan your projects to make the most of your sewing time and money.

    Here, the All Season Dress goes to different places with the change of accessories and a topper.

    This simple black dress is made from our  All Season Dress, cut in a medium weight poly/rayon stretch woven.A printed silk scarf was purchased from our dear friend, Denise Aleksich. A chiffon shawl from a square remnant is hemmed with rolled edge foot and matching thread.
    Our Simple Slimming Jacket  made in a novelty metallic weave takes the LBD to an evening gala.The Wrap Jacket in silk tweed with contrasting collar in douppioni silk over the LBD. The sea blue/green of this cardigan made from our pattern Sweater Twin Set introduces a fresh light touch. The cardigan’s length maintains an overall slimness. A belt and favourite pendant complete a simple ensemble.
    A Shapely Shirt worn under, turns the LBD into a little jumper.
    The lavender shirt is in a cotton/spandex poplin blend.
    Here, the Shapely Shirt is worn over as a topper, covering the arms plus adding color and pattern interest with its vertical stripes.Take the LBD to casual with a pop of color in a Jeans Jacket.
