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.
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.!
