Colette Licorice Dress

Colette Licorice Dress with Colette Violet Sleeve

I made this dress for Cindy's Birthday [my daughter].Sorry the picture turned
out so badly..eeeh, I am no photographer,ha.
The dress was really simple to  make, I really liked the collar, I added piping to it
for a really cute additive. I used the sleeve pattern from the colette violet pattern.
Very Nice to sew something.. I have really missed it.

    Good Morning Judy!

    I really like this pattern...I'm very fond of rounded collars...I think they look really feminine. This looks like the perfect spring dress! Comfortable, light...yet elegant at the same time. Colette has some wonderful patterns.

    Have a blessed day!
    With love,
    Laura

      Laura,
      I too like the round collars.. [kinda reminds me of our younger days,ha] I have done the violet blouse [colette pattern] alot, and love the round peter pan collar on it.
      The dress was much prettier in person.. I took this photo in my sewing room, and the sun was shining right in on it, and it didnt do well. It is not as thin as it looks.ha
      Hope you have a blessed day too.

    Judy it is beautiful. I love the way you add little bits and bob. I must say I prefer those sleeves too.

    Judy this is gorgeous, lucky Cindy to still have her Mum making her dresses. What a great present - now we just need a pic of her in it. I agree with Charlotte, good call on the sleeves.
