Description
I love this dress!
I know I’m jumping on the sewing community bandwagon with this pattern (Butterick 4790), but every finished product I saw on here was so amazing in its own way that I had to sew it. So, voilà!
Material Notes
Patterned piqué fabric, white bridal satin, black bias tape, snaps, buttons

really really nice!!! I made this same dress with a fabric printed with words… it did not suit the dress well needless to say since it reads upside down on the back of the dress : ( this is adorable!!! Love the fabric you chose! I think I will have to pull mine out and wear it more! makes the pattern look cool! : )
