Description

This is heavier upholstery type material but I loved the pattern and thought it would make a great dress. The fabric shop actually had a window treatment made of this material on display.

    Very unusual print and I love how it looks in a dress, but wouldn’t even imagine getting some for curtains! ;-);-);-) You did a great job on the dress!!!

    I’m about to make a dress out of a similar material (in weight, not in print/color). Good to know that it can look nice in a dress!

    Love it – very Scandinavian with that style print. Good fit too, thanks for the pattern #…

    Love your fabric choice, and love the pattern. Very retro-modern.

    Lovely fit, what pattern did you use?

    I am just making a dress very similar with a heavy linen too!

      Thank you! It is McCall’s M5799. I had difficulty getting the darts in the front to lay flat because the material was so stiff. Good luck!
