i bought this fabric in amsterdam on a market and i had to make a dress out of it! so i used the marie pattern and the hot hot heat dress-how to and this is my result! it was the first time for me to sew a zipper and i think it turned out quite good (i was a bit scared of sewing a zipper)..
cotton, elastic, buttons, straps of a bra

You did a beautiful job on that dress, and I adore the detail at the neckline/bodice area. It looks like everything just came together right with this dress.

Your dress looks great – lovely colour and it fits you perfectly, did you use shearing elastic at the back?
