Welcome to Day 3 of the DIY Meghan Markle Dress Sew Along. Today we are working on my favorite part, the skirt and pockets. Installing these pockets is easy and quick on this pattern that I picked up in the thrift store. Even if you didn’t have this specific pattern, you can watch how they go together and easily recreate it with a large rectangle of fabric cut out in addition to pocket pieces. If you need to catch up on Day 1: Prep and Cutting or Day 2: The Bodice– please click on each link to be taken to the Sew Along.

Tomorrow’s sew along is that belt which scared me to no end. Although there are a couple things I would do differently next time, I was pleased with how my first go at it went and the belt looks very similar to the inspiration dress so that is a win!! Hope to see you back here tomorrow for Day 4.
Until Next Time,
Happy Sewing
