The Megan dress is my first project from Love at First Stitch by Tilly Walnes and I am pretty happy with how it turned out.
This dress was relatively easy to make (Tilly includes fantastic picture instructions with all her patterns) however I would probably not reccommend this pattern for a beginner.
I love the way this dress fits. The darts and dart tucks ( a first for me!) ensure the dress hugs the body in all the right places.
I really like the use of the invisible zip. This was the first time I had used one, however it is not very easy (or cheap!) to get an invisible zipper foot for my machine. I watched a few YouTube videos and eventually worked out how to install an invisible zipper with my normal zipper foot.
There are a few things I will work on for next time. The sleeves stick up a bit, so I need to work on my gathering. My dart tucks were far from perfect (I think I should have pressed them slightly better) and I need to get way better at installing an invisible zip.
Overall I am happy with how this has turned out and I will certainly be making another one...very soon!
