I was given a choice of <a href="http://www.hillarys.co.uk/inspiration/2015/05/hillarys-craft-competition-2015/">four of the fab prints</a> they have in their very extensive range, and I chose Rayna Apple. I was sent one square metre of fabric very promptly and began planning. (And double checking that I could use a co ordinating fabric alongside the Rayna Apple.)<br> So, with an idea of what I wanted to do I started work drafting a pattern. Initially I wanted to make a dress, using my co ordinating fabric as the bodice. So using my personal bodice block I drafted a scoop slightly gathered neck bodice with button front fastening&hellip;I was clearly feeling brave because button fronts on my boobs rarely works well!</p>
