I used Simplicity pattern 3742 for this dress. Since I am a beginner, I tend to choose projects that are relatively simple and quick. This dress is very easy to make. I am happy it turned out ok.

Thanks for your comments. The fabric is from Hancock Fabric spring sale at $2 yard. I have to admit that I am addicted to fabric. I stop by places like Hancock, Joanne, Hobby Lobby and walmart fabric section frenquently, sometimes just to see what is out there.
