Portfolio Submition: Review for Yourself!

Hey guys!

 

It has been quite a while since I have been posting updates.

 

I am sorry for that! I have just been working hard on starting college as a freshman.

 I have been doing more than just sewing in the past few months. I now have to draw, paint, and create works of art on picture plains, instead of human bodies. I will have to post my past semester's work!

I have so much to show you!

:D

 

But for now, I am posting a quick review of my past works that are within this portfolio. I had to submit this for a different college (not the one I am in today) for a scholarship.

I got $26,000 worth of scholarship from this school, but it wasn't enough to attend to, sadly.

But my other school offered me much more.

I just had to take that!

:3

 

Anyway, here ya go and I hope you enjoy.

Happy Holidays!

 

 



Prom Dress 2011

So this week I haven't been doing much of any sewing at all,

which makes me really sad

But I will post this dress that I made at the beginning of the year.

Heres a prom dress I made for the Joann's Prom Contest

Front View

Back View

This is a ball gown corseted top dress with plastic boning and an overlay of red, black, and more black tulle with rime stones as a top layer

Now I'm really sad about this dress for many ill thought of mistakes...

This was one of the many first attempts of making a corset. What I did was that I bought a corset pattern, modified the waist line for a more dramatic curve, and sew an overload of tulle along with a satin under dress.

What I wanted out of the corset was a 2 or 3 inch back gap, a dramatic curve, and, heh make my boobs really pop out...

(But overall I wanted a very tight fit in all places of my torso)

But what happened was that the waist was more snug than tight and breathless, the bust was HUGE, and the hips were awkward and gross appearing

I wish that it would have turned out better cause it would have looked even better if I had just gotten all the measurements correct....

And I wasn't in the top 20 contestants for that contest....

sigh

I might sell this item

If interested or want to know any measurements for this dress,
