Grey and white striped dress with poofy skirt. I used the JJ pattern 6009 for the top and left off the sleeves and ruffles. I also used small sew on snaps rather than buttons. The skirt is a basic gathered skirt with in seam pockets and the waist is loose enough to just pull over so there is no need for a zipper. The material is a little sheer so I wear a slip underneath it.
Not sure of the material it seems like it could have been used as lining

Thanks!! I want to make another one using prints and maybe with sleeves, I guess I want to try it with more detail. I’ve worn it many times and I like it a lot :)

I’m campaigning for a Jazz up your JJ contest and here’s yet another proof to the versatility of the pattern. I love this version a lot, lot..
