Dress made from a light denim type fabric (complete with dye rub off, my hands now resemble a smurfs.) I used pattern 6000 from New Look and made version E. I really love the buttons, a friend gave me his wife’s mothers button collection and there were some really beautiful buttons in there.

Really like your dress. I have some lovely denim with a sheen to it but wasn’t sure what to make but your dress has given me some ideas.

That’s good! It’s a nice fabric to work with, even if it does turn your hands blue!
