Description

This is my version of the beautiful Coffee Date dress pattern elainemay has shared with us (thank you!). I made a few tweaks, instead of a ruffle, I added a waistband. This was my first project back after not sewing for over a decade. It is really fun and rewarding to get back to it! I added a lining and put the zipper on the side. What a great project to get back to sewing with, I am so inspired by all the versions of the Coffee Date Dress!
