Sewing A Vintage 1950s Dress Pattern For Martin Luther King Day #asmr

I made this vintage shirtwaist dress pattern in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. If I had a time-machine, this is the style of dress I would've worn to witness the 1963 March On Washington where MLK gave his famous “I Have A Dream” speech.

When I think of the civil rights movement, I think of the Summer heat and the color yellow. I couldn’t have found a more perfect late-1950s sundress to make for this occasion.

This is my 3rd sewing project and the first time I ever attempted adjusting a pattern. I felt like it was missing something in the end there, so I added my own little signature style element.

Support my next sewing project 🌻💛

This is nothing short out of absolute majesty. I now know how my great grandmothers saved the old white sheets, dyed them various colors and transformed them into beautiful Sunday and HOLIDAY dresses.

This is the kind of a gem that you find not knowing it was exactly what you needed❤

Gorgeous dress! And love seeing proper shaping under it. What a beautifully shot and edited video as well. The entire video felt luxe and glamorous. Such a relaxing and original idea to bring to the vintage sewing YouTube community! I CANNOT wait to see what you do next! 😍

Also, I am LIVING for your fur trimmed sewing ensemble.

Tips to keep your iron from leaking are. Never store with water in it. Once water is in it don't lay it horizontal until it's hot and ready for steam. Don't press the steam button until it's hot enough this means when it's re heating too because it will just cause it to leak.
If your iron has been dropped a lot then replace it.
I've heard good things about Chi and I have a singer and I have no complaints and it now is available in Pink!

Really cute. Looks like you are using a quilting cotton fabric. Have you tried using a specialty cotton fabric. It is a smoother cotton, less raw.

I just adore the bows and ruffles! It’s a unique twist on a classic 1950s design and you executed it perfectly. I’ve been looking for some inspiration to sew more things that are just lovely and you’re it. Can’t wait to see what you make in the future!
