Description

Pattern Advance 4826.
If I had more fabric I would have made the matching bolero, maybe make one in black. (One day).
Unbelievable how much these patterns vary, this size was size 14 with bust 34" I’m a 38 and this was way too big, go figure, (pardon the pun)!
I’m wearing a petticoat in the photo that’s why it seems fuller than the photo’s on the mannequin.
Funny how the mannequin has my measurements but all my dresses look better on the mannequin :(

Material Notes

2 Mtrs striped cotton/stretch fabric Belt buckle 35 cm invisible zip

    That is some very impressive stripe matching! Beautifully sewn. I think a black bolero would be a very stylish accessory for this dress.

    Oh I disagree…the dress looks so much better on you than the dummy! I love the detail you’ve put into this dress.

    This looks amazing! I love when chevrons are created when using patterns on the bias. Well done.
