Dolly Sewalong Diaries: Shift Dress

This month has 5 Wednesdays, so we’re hosting Dolly Sewalong Diaries from July 27 – July 31, 2020!

What is Dolly Sewalong Diaries, you ask?

It’s where we sew a doll pattern together with you and if there is any issues, we work together to solve them.

Everyone who participates, is your virtual Sewing Buddy!

Helping you squash your sewing fears and cheering you on along the way.

For 5 days we will work on sewing a pattern by Waffle Patterns.

We will provide you with a task for each day and by the end of the week, you’ll have a cute dress.

Sounds nice doesn’t it?

To increase your accountability, each day you’ll have the option of submitting a photo and a “diary entry” that corresponds to the task for the day.

We hope you’ll join us!
