Blue /Black Check wrap dress I just love this dress.I love the way , it buttons down the side. And look how cute that pocket is.. |
Olivia Walton's Wrap dress with Scalloped Collar I fell in love with wrap dresses, when I watched the Walton's tv show.. Olivia was so well dressed, and each of her house dresses, were so flattering. She has several different wrap dresses on the show. I am working on a wrap dress now. The sweet Eva Girl, http://theopulentpoppy.blogspot.com/search/label/daily%20dress has offered some advice on tweaking this pattern. All of the modern wrap dress patterns are too low cut. So, I am trying to work on a modest neckline, with a new pattern. Hope to have photos to show soon. |
that wrap dress is beautiful. I would love to see the Waltons again, another favorite was the little house on the pairie
ReplyDeleteCharlotte,
DeleteI love Little house on the prarie too. We have reruns of both shows every afternoon, So, I watch them pretty often..
That scalop collar is very sweet.. I love wrap dresses so look foward to see your version xx
ReplyDeleteI like that collar too.. cute.
DeleteThis dress is so pretty. I know what you mean about wrap dresses, they can hang too low. I can't wait to see what you come up with. I finally got the pattern you did from your last dress. I am thinking of using a knit.
ReplyDeleteGina, yes , I bet a knit would work well..And be oh so comfortable.
DeleteThat's a very pretty dress indeed, love the pocket, what great inspiration x
ReplyDeleteHey Charlotte, The pocket is what caught my attention on this dress.Super cute.
DeleteI'm looking forward to seeing how it comes out - I hope everything comes together O.K. : )
ReplyDeleteThankyou.. I hope to get a post soon.. Have had other things come up ...and haven't gotten to work on it , as much as I would have liked.. I apprecaite your help..
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your dress, Judy! I love the "Olivia" dress...especially the collar. I would love to have one just like it! Isn't "The Waltons" just the best!
ReplyDeleteWith love,

Laura, I really, really love the Waltons and Little House on the Prarie series.. I watch the reruns nearly every day ,ha.
DeleteI have bought several wrap dress patterns, and have tried to work on the front. with no real luck.. All of them are so low cut [eek].. But,hopefully, I will soon get it down . I would love to have bunches of them.ha
I hurt my knee [with the shovel in the flower bed,yuck] and havent done much sewing, in the past couple weeks..Hopefully, will be able to sew soon.
Somehow I missed this one. This is such a knock out dress! So smart looking and stylish too!
