Summer is not over yet, right?

Those are fantastic; you did a great job of copying the first one; I think the pink/red one with the vertical stripes is my favourite though, it's so elegant!

[13thpomegranate]

Thank you!!!

I was a little afraid that those vertical stripes would turn me into a mattress. I am very happy it did not happen :) .

Haha, no, not at all, I think it looks beautiful! I understand your fear though; I've just made myself a dress out of a cotton-mix brocade which was intended for upholstery, so I was a bit worried it might make me took like an odd-shaped chair, but I think it actually works pretty well!

[13thpomegranate]

Beautiful! Looks so nice on you and I love the color.

Oh, I like upholstery fabrics a lot, they keep the original shape so perfectly.

All beautiful, but I adore that last one with the blue and yellow flowers.

Thank you!!!

This design is so fresh and summery, isn't it? :)

[khemlab]

It really is!

Very pretty, all of them :)

I am a bit envious of your sewing ability, I was a miserable failure at sewing back in school :P

[13thpomegranate]

I was too ;) .
But I grew up in Soviet Union, and it was pretty simple: you want hip clothes - you make them (or pay somebody to make them, or pay 2x the price if you know somebody who was willing to sell them), so I started to sew. 21 years ago I moved to US and forgot about this skill. Recently I found that I again enjoy it and I have time to do it. I started to make little things for home, open an etsy shop and started to make my own clothes. )))

I love the long flora one at the end. I'd have to let the bit of ruffle go for myself but I really like that pattern.
Great job on the sewing. :D

[13thpomegranate]

Thank you!

I was very surprised my husband liked it. Usually for him it suppose to be either fitted or short to be liked. Here we have neither, but it so summery! )))

[missingkitsune]

You're very welcome.

Flow-y dresses are cooler in the summer heat too. So that's another good thing about them.

Wow! These are great inspiration, thanks for sharing them :)

Thank you! I am glad you liked them ))).
