Blue stretch lace dress

This is one of the first dresses I ever took serious. I had been sewing for years but never sat down and attempted to construct a fitted complete garment. I cut out several different sizes of this blue stretch lace and pinned them piece by piece. I was 18 and on the floor of my bedroom. When I was done sewing the small area I had pinned, I fit it to myself and pinned another section to sew. It was a pain to get off with all those pins but it was worth it. Still a favorite.
