I wanted to make a quick and easy project, and had this fabric in my stash, which I think is perfect for a summer dress. I made it without making a muslin before, just added the for me most common alterations directly to the paper pattern and went on. As a result, the armholes are a bit too small, but it still is quite comfortable to wear.
