This is my newest Doris Dress, a pattern by Sew Over It. I've retraced in a size 20 so bodice fitting issues I previously put right, have now reappeared. Never mind, there will be more! It's totally wearable and made in a pretty viscose bought for me at Christmas with strict instructions to make a Doris!

[ENG] Can anyone else believe it’s the end of August already? Where has the time gone? I’m frantically trying to finish my dissertation and along with everything else there’s not much time to sew. But I still have this #SOIDorisDress I made a few months ago that I haven’t shown you yet. I took it with me to Portugal and my friend took these pretty pictures with the gorgeous azulejos. It’s my second Doris and like with the first, I skipped the side zip and the buttons are just sewn on, no buttonholes, but I can get it over my head just fine (you cinch it at the back with ties). [CZ] Taky nechápete, že už je konec srpna? Kam ten čas letí? Já jsem v trochu hysterickém módu, jak se snažím dokončit disertaci, a se vším ostatním moc času na šití nezbývá. Ale mám tu v zásobě tyhle šaty Doris od @sewoveritlondon , co jsem šila před pár měsíci a v Portugalsku mě v nich kamarádka vyfotila u krásných kachliček. Podle střihu jsem šila už podruhé. Opět jsem vynechala zip a knoflíčky našila jen tak, bez knoflíkových dírek, a šaty v pohodě přetáhnu přes hlavu (v zadu se v pase stahují vázačkou). Látka je viskóza z @dumlatek.cz #vezmimrazenadovcu Nevím, jestli to ještě vůbec běží 🙈, ale kdyžtak příspěvek 9/10 do #ukazcotvoris

I tried a new to me pattern a while ago, the #soidorisdress and I've actually never worn it. I added large pockets, took inspiration from a vintage dress I've got in my wardrobe. Then it took me about three months to finish it and make the buttonholes 🙈 But for these pictures I used my petticoat and looking at it now all of a sudden I think I just might give it a go 😊 #sysysy #hemsytt #visomsyr #visygale #nähen #nähenfürmich #retrostil #klänning #sew #sewing #sewsewsew #sewersofinstagram #sewingproject #retrostyle #imakemyownclothes #isewmyownclothes #sewersgonnasew #sewmuchfun #sewyourown #dinegenstil #lovesewing #färgförfan

Ta-da! I finished hand-sewing the vintage buttons from Grandma's button tin on to my @artgalleryfabrics doris dress! They really were the perfect match (swipe for a close up). It was the perfect summer outfit for today when @leighmordy and I went to see @thelionkinguk . It's been a while but I also did a twirling photo (last 2 pics) in my twirl-worthy dress. ☆Fabric: @artgalleryfabrics rayon ☆Dress pattern: @sewoveritlondon doris dress ☆Buttons: from my Grandma's button tin ☆Thread: @guetermann_creativ_uk ☆Sewing machine and overlocker: @janomeuk ☆Pins: @clovermfg ☆Interfacing: @vlieseline_uk #sewoverit #artgalleryfabrics #sew #sewing #craft #crafts #handmade #fabric #textiles #creativityfound #makersgonnamake #handmadewithlove #calledtobecreative #creativelifehappylife #creativity #maker #makersmovement #sewistsofinstagram #sewersofinstagram #makersofinstagram #vintagefashion #memade #memadewardrobe #soidorisdress #dorisdress #vintage #vintagebuttons #vintagebutton #thelionking #walesmillenniumcentre

The feminine Doris Dress is semi-fitted with a flattering scooped neck bodice, bust pleats for delicate shaping and floaty grown-on sleeves. The fluted skirt is panelled giving the dress beautiful movement. [Image Description: Salma wears a black Doris Dress with statement orange buttons on the front bodice.

New handmade dress 👗 This week I am thrilled to talk about the Doris Dress, from Sew Over It. This is a pattern I bought years ago, and I am so glad I finally found the right fabric to pair it with: This feminine pattern combined with a lightweight linen made the perfect dress to endure harsh temperatures this summer (can you guess I didn't stay in the UK this past July?!). Read more about it on my new blog! . . Pattern: Doris Dress from @sewoveritlondon Fabric: Rayon Linen from @dalston.mill.fabrics

How beautiful does @maikesjournal look in her Doris Dress?! Inspired by Lisa’s love of 1950’s fashion, the Doris Dress is semi-fitted with a pretty scoop neckline, bust pleats for delicate shaping, easy-to-sew grown-on sleeves and a floaty panelled skirt.

#MeMadeMay2022 Week Five Round Up Okay, so I realise that it's almost August but the fact that I still haven't posted the last three outfits from Me Made May to my grid has been winding me up. So here they are: 1. @sewoveritlondon #SOIDorisDress 2. @megannielsenpatterns #MNDawn and @fibremood #FibreMoodNorma 3. @sewoveritlondon #SOIKateDress I really enjoyed participating again this year. I challenged myself to wear dresses and skirts at least four days a week and I succeeded in this. It was good to push myself to think i bit more about my outfits and how I could switch things up. I made a note of some items that need adjusting and some that don't work for me any more. I also realised that I would like some more skirts to choose from. All in all, a productive month! Thanks to @sozoblog for this great challenge. #sewing #dressmaking #iSew #sewcialists #SewistsOfInstagram #seamstress #UKSewist #IMakeMyOwnClothes #MeMadeEveryday #HandmadeWardrobe #DIYDressmaker #SewingBlogger #SewingIsMySuperpower #SewingChallenge #SewOverIt #SOIWorkToWeekend #SewNotts #SewDerby

Loving my new @sewoveritlondon Doris dress. As with all their patterns, I never need to make any adjustments😊 It was perfect for the really hot weather earlier this week 🥵 - about to make another for my holidays as I love the pattern so much 🥰 Fabric is a ditsy viscose print from @guthrieghani - dark navy with tiny flower petals on it - perfect drape for this dress. #soidorisdress #summersewing #sewing #sew #imadethis #imakemyclothes #beautifulfabric #sewover50 #summerdress

I delved into my Grandma's button tin again for the perfect buttons to finish off my new me-made @artgalleryfabrics dress. Once again, I found some beauties - she really had great button taste!

Today’s #tonysspiritweek theme is Favorite Films - a movie that became a musical. And I went with Matilda! We just finished our production of Matilda, Jr. and I modeled Miss. Honey’s costume after a dress of my own, which you see here (for those new to my page from this challenge, I design and make costumes for the musicals/productions at the school where I teach - you can see more of that @mckinleycostumes ). The pattern is the @sewoveritlondon Doris Dress. I used the pattern (in different fabric) to make Miss. Honey’s main costume (I’ll put some pictures of that in my stories). The set has been taken down at this point but I was able to pose next to a remaining stack of books set piece (all fittingly Roald Dahl books). My original plan had been my all-time favorite, Waitress, but I misjudged mg post-pregnancy body and the bust of what I would’ve worn was WAY too tight! #sewing #memade #memadewardrobe #sewist #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialist #sewcialistsofinstagram #makersgonnamake #nycsews #brooklynsews #handmadewardrobe #idratherbesewing #sewoverit #sewoveritlondon #matildathemusical #matildajr #mtishows #soidorisdress #misshoney #dressedforbroadway

Day 7 of Me Made May 2022 We celebrated Mother’s Day today instead of tomorrow as everyone seems to have things on the go tomorrow. This is a first time out for my new Doris Dress. I finished it about a week ago, but haven’t posted as #MeMadeMay overtook my feed. It is appropriate for Mother’s Day, I bought it because the way the flowers were drawn reminded me of the way my daughters use to draw flowers when they were younger. Modifications on this one, I added pockets! I used the pocket from the Hinterland Dress and extended it to anchor into the waist to reduce the pull on the thin fabric. Gotta have pockets!

Finally got a chance to wear this dress I finished last year. Pattern is the Doris Dress from @sewoveritlondon. It's a really fun one to sew and so flattering.

Happy New Year everyone! I was fortunate enough to spend a few days away at the coast this year so I'm feeling very refreshed and hopeful for 2022. Here are my #topnine posts from 2021! I always find it interesting to see what people have liked. There are some of my favourite makes from last year in here but some are also missing. My #makenine2021 plans also proved popular, which I totally get as there were some cracking patterns in there. Thanks for all the comments, likes, chats, follows and advice this past year. Instagram continues to be a huge source of inspiration to me and a mine of knowledge on my dressmaking journey. I have big plans for 2022. @closetcorepatterns #JasikaBlazer I'm looking at you! Might even jump on the #SewingSwimwear bandwagon. Now let's get sewing! 🎉👗✂️🪡🧵 #sewing #dressmaking #ISew #sewcialists #SewistsOfInstagram #MillenialSewing #UKSewist #SewingBlogger #IMakeMyOwnClothes #MeMadeEveryday #HandmadeWardrobe #MadeByMe #PSIMadeThis #namedsolina #gimletboilersuit #bloomsburyblouse #cashmerettepatterns #appletondress #soiedietop #soidorisdress #HarlowPajamas #SOIBettyDress

Starting week 4 of #memademay2025 Day 20 - wearing a red #soidorisdress by @sewoveritlondon in rayon by @fabricmart This is a wearable muslin because that's how I usually roll. I'll definitely make it again in less see through fabric 😬 so I can wear the dress outside of my house #sewistsofinstagram #austinsews #memade

💐🧵 Sew Over It Doris Dress 🧵💐 It may be a bit early to be sewing for the summer, but I've had the @sewoveritlondon Doris Dress on my 'to sew list' for a long time and I am sewing some summer makes earlier this year so I can have some new pieces for my honeymoon! I've seen this beautiful viscose challis pop up across my social media for a number of years now and I am really pleased to have it in my wardrobe! The fabric has a beautiful drape and is so soft against the skin. I found it really easy to work with, but made sure to let the fabric hang for a few days. I think the panelled skirt meant that the hem did drop quite a bit and I needed to take longer than I expected to sort it. Hemming is not my favourite task at all! I may need to cut off a few cms and hem again as it isn't my neatest work! I used some green vintage buttons from my collection for the bodice. I sewed the buttons directly onto the bodice front as I am able to get the dress on and off without the need to open the bodice. This pattern has a side zip, which isn't my favourite closure, but this one turned out really well! This is my first Doris Dress and certainly won't be my last! I can see the dress being perfect for a summer's day as it is not overly fitted. I made a straight size 10 and found that there was still some room in the waist, which is reduced by the waist ties. I've got some lovely navy bird print peachskin fabric set aside that I will make myself another Doris Dress! I've got a week off in March and plan to paint the kitchen, but also sew up some makes! Pattern: Sew Over It Doris Dress Size: 10 Fabric: Floral Viscose from @minervadotcom Fabric gifted in exchange of an honest review [Lolly stands in front of a black fireplace wearing a knee length blue viscose with floral print.

This is my new Tammy Handmade Cara Cardigan. I made it from the same 2m length of ponte roma as my Blackwood Cardigan in my previous post. The only compromise was to piece the front band. It's lovely and casual. I love the informal style of this one. 😊 I had a nightmare with the buttonholes with shredding thread etc and had to undo them several times. Hence no buttons this time.

Say hello to my new handmade summer dress👗 My fav part? Can't decide between the buttons on the front or the belt on the back! For this dress, I chose wooden button to keep a raw and natural look (that I think marry well with the linen and the flowers). Read more about it on my new sewing blog! .

Inspired by a 1950s silhouette, our Doris Dress is perfect for summer days and evenings. Doris features an elegant scooped neckline, bust pleats for delicate shaping, grown-on sleeves and a fluted panelled skirt with two length options. The waist can be left unfitted to keep cool in the heat, or cinched in at the back with the choice of ties or a fixed back belt.

Last day of the Platty Joobs and I’m determined to crack this sewing project! I’m doing the @sewoveritlondon Dorris and having some issues with excess fabric in places I don’t want it but have made a bunch of adjustments and giving it another go today, tricky when you’ve got grown on sleeves. Loving the crazy 70s cotton though! 🌺🌼🌺🌼🌺 #plattyjoobs #weekendsewing #memade #sewistsofinstagram #dressmakersofinstagram #dressmaking #memadewardrobe #imadeitmyself #soidorisdress

This is my new Marlo Sweater by TrueBias . I sized down to a 14 to get the fit I wanted which is perfect but wouldn't be comfortable if I buttoned it up. I never button up a cardi anyway so it's exactly what I wanted. The fabric is a Ponte Roma from legend textiles . Lovely and soft and a bargain too. Worn here with my Doris Dress by sewoverit. Shown seated for the Seated Makes Challenge run by Lolie @lolieya and Yvonne @thewheeliestitcher

[EN] Last weekend the weather was so nice it was time to pull out a pretty spring dress like this @sewoveritlondon #SOIDorisDress made out of a pretty @ladymcelroyfabrics linen-look viscose I got ages ago from @stitchybee.co.uk In fact, I’ve made this dress a few years ago. It’s a great versatile day dress and despite being a few sizes too big for me now, the ties at the back mean I can kind of create a little wrap at the back and tie them at the front. Obviously the fit is not as good as it would be if it was my size, but it’s still workable for the lazy sewist like me. I hate altering things! Do you feel the same? … [CZ] O víkendu bylo tak krásně, že jsem musela vytáhnout nějaké jarní šaty. Sáhla jsem po šatech Doris od #SewOverIt ušitých z viskózy od #LadyMcElroyFabrics které jsem šila už dávno. Ale až teď mi skvělý @nacodoberlina udělal tyhle boží fotky na jednom z mých nejoblíbenějších míst v Budějcích. Střih je to skvělý a hodí se na lecjakou příležitost. I když jsou teď šaty o pár velikostí větší, než bych potřebovala, tak se nosit v pohodě dají - mají vzadu vázačku, tak tam prostě zadní díl trochu překřížím a zavážu na mašli vepředu. Samozřejmě nepadnou tak dobře, jako kdyby to byla moje velikost, ale myslím, že to tolik nevadí. Zkrátka ideální řešení pro lípou švadlenu, já velmi nerada upravuju už hotové věci! Máte to stejně?

Look at that, a real summer dress day! This is the wearable toile for the blue dress in my last post (so another @cashmerette Upton bodice and @sewoveritlondon Doris skirt) but I actually only finished this one yesterday because time is merely a suggestion. I haven’t worn this kind of thing in years so right now it feels a bit strange, but I’m pleased with how it looks and feels on me. I’ve been trying to work out how to get more bright red into my everyday wardrobe and I think this is going to do the job very nicely! #Sewing #HandmadeWardrobe #CashmerettePatterns #UptonDress #SewOverIt #SOIDorisDress #Summer #SummerDress

This new make has been waiting all May so far for an outing! #MeMadeMay2022 day 16 is my brand new swooshy @sewoveritlondon Doris dress. Swipe for swooshes and stags! Love how this turned out, I feel quite dainty in it and the leaves and flowers make it feel very spring-like to me despite the black background. Plus the stags make me think of lovely long walks in Richmond Park. It has added pockets, which extend up to the waistline thanks to the Princess seams so they don't distort the skirt too much. I made a size 18 and lengthened the bodice an inch thinking I could get away with it on a dolman shape... I really should have done an FBA but I can just about live with it. There are some stitches between the top few buttons for extra security! Lesson learned. The dress was squeezed out of 3m, which is a surprise as I usually find that SOI patterns overestimate fabric requirements (2.7m) but apparently the lengthened bodice and added pockets really stretched possibilities! The @ladymcelroyfabrics "majestic stag" crepe is very swooshy and was easy to work with. Despite the fact its polyester, it feels lovely and soft without feeling plasticky I lined the bodice in some scrap viscose from another project, which will hopefully help with the hothouse effect! #soishowoff #soidorisdress #sewing #gothsewing #sewingaltfashion #alternativesewing #CurvySewing #instasew #londonsews #memade #handmadewardrobe

Another day of online meetings, the last for a little while, and it was also a beautiful day to enjoy breaks outside. Although I originally made this as a summer dress, working remotely I’ve worn it year round, usually with a cardigan and pyjama bottoms, but today it was on it’s own with tights.

Yesterday we went to the first family wedding in ages, and I made a new dress! I had a very specific vibe in mind which was a bit different from my usual style, and I ended up putting together this vivid blue floral viscose (from Walthamstow as usual), the princess seam version of the @cashmerette Upton bodice and the skirt from the @sewoveritlondon Doris dress. Originally I planned to have flutter sleeves but they hit at an odd place and gave me what I can only describe as an extended boob shelf, so I hacked most of the length off them. I also added my favourite side seam pockets, which kept my phone remarkably secure during a very enthusiastic wedding disco! It was a beautiful day and such a lovely wedding (they were SO HAPPY), so I’ve put a small photo dump from the day in here too. Including a shot of my cousin’s decorated power chair, because a) relevant to the interests of a few of you, and b) awesome #HandmadeWardrobe #CashmerettePatterns #UptonDress #SewOverIt #SOIDorisDress #WeddingGuest #KnackeredNow

Creo que me enamoré de @sewnbyele en cuanto vi sus gráficos de #sewistdata2021. ¡A qué nivel de detalle llega! Y me dio por analizar mis costuras de 2021. Está claro que el año pasado fue EL AÑO DE LA ROPA INTERIOR. Con 5 #nixiebriefs, 2 #blackbeautybra, 2 #jordybralette y alguna cosa más, se me llenó el cajón. Y se vienen más sujetadores, estense atentos. Los vestidos, no podía ser menos, tuvieron también su gran trozo de tarta (aunque en 2019 fue un porcentaje aún mayor). Me hizo gracia ver la escalerita que forma la distribución por meses en 2021. Muy diferente a las de 2020 y 2019. En mis gráficos va solo lo que cosí para mí. Lo que coso para otras personas o para la casa, no existe 😂 Y ya que estaba haciendo análisis, me puse a hacer la guía para el 2022. Llamalo #makenine2022, #9planescosturiles o #bingocosturil. Al final, a mí me sirve para organizar un poco lo que me gustaría hacer y vuelvo a esta lista cuando necesito inspiración. Los destacados son: 1. #soidorisdress de @sewoveritlondon 2. #cariswimsuit de @damarstudio 3. #le103 de @dpstudio_fashion 4. #lansdownebra de @orange_lingerie 5. Pantalón de trekking 1840 de @unicosemoldes 6. #no8svaneke de @howtodofashion 7. #scoutdress de @gertie18 8. #ddsirocco de @deer_and_doe_patterns 9. #MNRowan de @megannielsenpatterns Dejé, cobardemente, los zapatos fuera del listado, pero espero que caigan este año.
