I saw this fabric in the fabric store and although I didnt know exactly what i wished to do with it, I just saw a floaty little summer dress in my mind….i didnt use any patterns (i am scared of them) and made it up as i went along….i mixed together the tutorial for marvys hot hot heat dress for the front and the $8 dress….you cant see from this picture but the back is rows of elastic creating gathers and can be easily slipped on over a bikini or vest top with no zips (also scared of them)!

thanks very much…..and yes it was Mawgan Porth beach in Cornwall…..i went for a weeks holiday and this was one of the rare days of sunshine! It was lovely even in the rain though.
