I saw a similar dress in Toast catalogue. Luckily, one of my japanese pattern books had an almost exact copy. Check it out on my blog and here

Ink: yes, it was the chemise paysanne I was going for! I think Toast’s version had a separate yoke at the front as well, but I didn’t know how to do it, so I left it out. I’m quite pleased with that :)

Beautiful! Light and comfy. Looks gorgeous.
I never heard of Toast before. I just looked
them up, great clothes! I assume you were
trying for the ‘chemise paysanne’? If you did
it looks exactly like it!
Congrat’s!
