| Simplicity 5942 Gingham check with cherries fabric from stash. I made the little bow...but, it just didn't work for me.. [too old.ha] The dress is comfortable, and wears well. I had worn it all day , when this photo was taken..So, it looks wrinkled and unkept.. |

| This dress was for my MAGAM challenge. for July. I did complete it in July.. Fabric and pattern came from my stash. The only thing. I purchased was the zipper. The belt was borrowed from another dress. |
It's gorgeous, what fabulous fabric SO summery.

DeleteLove the look of the notched collar on this dress, you look great in it ... even after a day of strolling the gardens ... J

DeleteIt looks lovely, Judy! If it IS wrinkled it's because if fit so well, and you wore it comfortably all day. Sounds like a winner to me. I really need to get on with this next 'chapter' to see what things may need to be added to my wardrobe.

DeleteSo adorable! Perfect everyday dress to feel comfortable and feminine.
ReplyDeleteBy the way we are never to old for bows (i think) Perhaps if you made a
real small one it wouldn't look to "girly girl" and would complete the outfit!

ReplyDeleteThat is so cute and it looks really nice on you! I have a few vintage type patterns I want to use. I look at them every time I go into thrift or flea markets.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter loves cherry print fabric and I bought a yard of this same gingham and cherry fabric and made her a table runner and a pocket wall hanger with it!
