Technically a costume pattern, but I used fabric that was a little more subtle and wear it to church.
Well the patterned one was a cotton meant for quilting, and the other blue one is like a cotton blend I think.

Ah, I thought so. I have the same pattern and thought about using it for a non-costume dress as well, so thanks for the inspiration.
