Sewing class , Billy dress

Dear All,
Thank you for the sewing class for the Billy dress.
I learnt so many new skills , lengthening a dress, inserting ribbon into the shoulder seam, Inserting pockets, adding a cuff to a narrow wrist .
Attaching puffed sleeves accurately .

Practicing previously learnt skills , adding a neck band to the neck .
Thank you so much to Linda, I felt like I had been on a gym workout , but sewing …… all good .

I will have the confidence to use the pattern again to make another dress and maybe top.

Thanks ,
