My Most Favorite vintage Dress xXx

Description
This is my most favourite vintage dress that I have created to date. I feel like I never take it off!
I used vintage Vogue pattern 5028 which I have dated back to the 1960’s. I am a big fan of this pattern, you may have noticed this isn;t the first time I have used it, although I added a rectangle skirt instead of the original. It makes it more wearable I think.
The fabric was sources from curtains given to me by my Nan! She is the best :D
There are more pictures over on the Made with Hugs and Kisses Blog
I would really love to hear what you think
Thanks for looking xXx
