More Instant Gratification Sewing

Here are a couple more summer sundresses made from M5797. The first is made from a super lightweight daisy print twill. (Don't look too close. Somehow, I cut this sucker out shamefully off-grain. I'm amazed that the dress hangs decently!)
I love this print. I used a pink on pink dot print for the contrast band and the tie.

And the contrast is set off with lime green rick rack. Sweet!

I particularly love this little version. This fabric is left over from a S3900 I made a few years back. I love this fabric. I bought it at Hancock's a few years ago. It's an Asian print plisse- so crisp and cool and the colors and print are so cute. I wish I had stashed more away. They had several prints, but I thought I was being good and only bought these two. Sigh...

I used a plain white grosgrain ribbon to set off the contrast on this one. Aren't these fabrics adorable?

This pattern is so much fun. And simple, too. I kind of have a formula for it now: 1 main fabric, 1 contrast fabric, 1 coordinating trim. The possibilities are endless. I'd like to try spiffing up the top of the dress with a fabric flower or something... Maybe next time.

I'm going to give this one a rest for a little while now. I still need to finish the Burda sheath, and, dare I admit it... I started a new muslin last night. Stay tuned...
