Mad men competition



Hi there, I know I have been away for a bit. I have been sewing lots, just not posting. Anyways... the other day I stumbled across this awesome blog http://www.juliabobbin.com/, she has made a mad men challenge, where you make your favourite outfit seen on the show. I got so excited of course, as Mad Men and Joan especially are some of my personal obsessions too. The clothes are so pretty, the girls are so put together. I think I even prefer watching the show to eating chocolate, and that says a lot.


So I am going to take up the challenge.





I actually want to make a lot of their dresses, however I will not have time to make them all before the challenge finishes. I am halfway through a dress based on Joan Siegel. I just love the colour, how it is fitted, and love the little tie at the front. I will reupdate when I have finished it :)
