Description
My daughter is now 2 months old and in a good pattern of sleeping during the day, so I can sew again – yay! We went to a wedding yesterday and I quickly made this green dress I had seen and liked in the Burda Feb 09 magazine. I like the unusual drop gathered sleeves. I was hemming the dress 15 mins before we were due to leave…always a last minute rush :-)
Material Notes
Green jersey I bought at Walmart when I visited the states 5 years ago. At the time you didn’t get much stretch fabric in South African fabric shops.

I made this one up as a cream knit top but I found the fit over the bust was different to what I’d expected from the Burda mag pictures – well done to you, yours looks great.

Hello fabricaddict, welcome back. Congratulations on your new family member! I have to notice: you look gorgeous as always – only 2 months after delivery! The dress is really cute, and I like it in mono more than in print fabric.

You made a beautiful dress. I also used this pattern for a shirt and I think it is a great pattern. Love the color of your dress. Congrats on your little daughter :-)
