Description

Here is my first dress- third sewing project. I have actually managed to wear it a number of times and I find it to be quite comfortable.
I perhaps should have ironed it for the photo op but I figured no one would really mind.

Material Notes

100% cotton

I used a pattern!!!!!!!!!

Simplicity 3535

The pattern has all square neck-lines.

      Thank you for all your nice compliments! I should send you the vpp swing dress (It is too small for me!)

      I love this painting also. The painter’s name is Laurel Hausler. She has a great website:

      I love her work, I have a few pieces of hers.

      Thanks again Becky!

    Looks comfortable to wear. I really love this fabric; it reminds me of the 70s.

    I really like this dress, I’ve been planning to make a tunic and am just about finished but not sure what neckline to choose (i’m not using a pattern ). This dress gives me inspiration. P.S. Thanks for your comment on my JJ shirt dress :)

    You have the perfect eye for choosing the right fabric. The yoke is great and the lines are impeccable.!
