Description
yes, the sabrina is quite popular around here… seeing everyone’s sabrina made me jealous for my own. i added about 8 inches of length, omitted the pockets, and topstitched the straps to the back. i’m still not sold on the buttons (which again will be pseudo-buttons)… obviously, i did not care a whit for matching the print. i cut the pieces out carefully to get the best parts of the owls, but now i wish i had given a hoot. (yes, i said hoot.)
Material Notes
100% cotton bedspread from urban outfitters

amazing dress! I was just wondering—I want to make the dress but wanted to make it longer—how did you do that? just added the 8" to the pleat pieces center pieces and side pieces?

It’s adorable! Seeing everyone’s sabrinas really makes me wish I would look good in one……maybe I’ll make one for a friend instead…… I love yours! Great job!

I’m so excited to see your sabrina! The material is really different from what everyone else has been using, and I love it!

Again… What a great piece! I like it w/out the pockets a lot. I wish I had made mine longer, yours is the length I would’ve liked. Oh well.Live and learn, right?

Really funny! Wonderful colour for summer and the owls are great, as the whole dress is :)

Yay! You did really great job and the fabric is so adorable. I think double headed or half cut owl are charming in their own right.

owls!!! i LOVE it! and it fits you like a glove. i really like that you kept it simple by omitting the pockets which is what i’ll do whenever i get ‘round to making my my myyyyeee sabrina. hehe. (sorry, i couldn’t help it —that song is now stuck in my head!)
