This dress has everything I adore: stripes, yokes, pockets, twirlability and comfort. And doesn’t it look totally French? It’s also the first item I’ve made for K’s Fall wardrobe (if you’ve got an eagle eye, you will notice that this particular grey and blue striped number is not included in the tower of fabrics – but no matter, it was the nicest fabric to start with).
I used pattern B from this book (ISBN 978-4-579-11289-0) – I am so going to make that bubble dress too! I’m thinking burgundy linen…
The best part? As soon as I finished making it, K begged me to let her wear it. It’s still a little wonky in parts so I’m going to try the pattern again with a different fabric to see if I can do a better job with the next one…stay tuned!
