New dress

I finished his dress last week but as I said, I didn't have anyone to take pictures of me wearing it. I
wore it to the fair on Saturday. The pattern I used was one of the ones Andrea from Invisible Flower and I am sure I will make this again.
That's the pattern I used:

I went for the pink rose print cotton I showed you in a previous post and made up view 2. I would have preferred view 1 because I love full skirts but I didn't have enough fabric.
And the finished product......

I found the handbag at the fair and had to have it. It's perfect with that dress and many others in my wardrobe.
I love shirt dresses as you all know so it's nice to have a slightly different pattern now.
And a close up of the top.
The wonderful Julie (who hates having her picture taken but I got her anyway) and me at Saturdays fair.

  1. Yay! It looks gorgeous and just like the picture on the pattern!

    I recognized some of the things you've posted recently in the pictures of your booth at the crafts fair. I don't know how you can bear to part with them, especially the gingham one with the lace at the neckline!

  2. Thanks you two. I know,its hard sometimes but I am such a hoarder already........
    The good thing is that usually I can make things again if I miss them too much after they are gone.
