My First Online Purchase!

Ahhhhh!!! So recently I came out from under a rock (haha) and finally opened a Paypal account.  I know eh: Welcome to the real world Duni! I've been wanting for so many years (since childhood) to open a store/line and make my own clothing.  So... I just got my first online purchase from Easy.com, a pattern for making simple elegant abayas.  Well, it's actually a traditional Hawaiian muumuu.  It's pretty much the same thing.  Surprisingly enough this package came within a week.  Mind you, it felt like a month probably due to sheer excitement.  I've never really gotten mail before in a form of a package so I felt special.  A gift to myself! YEAH!

Let me tell you, the ideas are just rushing through my mind right now, it's incredible!  But will I be able to actually make this dress?  My first project was a high-waisted maxi skirt.  That alone was a bit complicated for a beginner.  All that material and steps can be overwhelming, and I've never done a dress.  This piece seems really advanced and I have a lot of new technics to learn.  Good thing this comes with an instruction index.  I'm not too sure if I would manage with out.  Alhamdulillah for YouTube...  If I need help I'll just have to look up the proper video.  Who honestly needs to pay to take classes? Honestly!  Oh well, I do love a good challenge.  I will be blogging my progress as well as posting on Instagram too!  Oh this is so exciting!

Well stay tuned!

Dress lovely, be lovely
