Luba's Reaction To Your Dresses! #projectdressagirl2024
I know how you like seeing Luba's reaction to your dresses that you donated. This is the video. This is just some of the first installment of dresses I have given her because I am still sorting them out. These are all the larger size dresses you sent, I think I threw in a couple of size 6's but for the most part they are 9 and up. There were quite a few larger sized dresses this year, which is fantastic! I must apologize some of the sound is corrupted in this video, I tried to delete most of it out! The mic was picking up on something, sorry about that. I hope it is not too annoying.
Thank you all so much,
Shari & Luba

    Yes, 100% agree with you. Good call removing the middle waist band pieces. They really do make this dress look maternity. I've sewn this dress for two friends so far -- one pregnant and one not. I wish I had removed the middle waist band for the non-pregnant pal! All well. I am about to sew this pattern a third time and will add pockets into the skirt side seems. As well, instead of using the inner collar and V-neck panels, I just sewed a full lining, since my fabric was a very thin cotton. This helped prevent my dresses being see-through too.
