Hi Loves!
First, let me say I missed you guys for the past 2 weeks. Second, soon I'll have pics of the craft room. I'm working on some fun stuff for that room. Third, last week's sew project was so fun.
I saw this pattern review a few months ago and thought I've got to get this pattern. So, when McCall's patterns went on sale at Hancock Fabrics, I bought it. I figured I'd have somewhere to wear it one day. And soon after my opportunity came. When my church's Bishop announce our general conference was coming up soon, I knew it was the perfect event. The conference colors were red and white and I had nothing in my stash that was knit and red. So, to the fabric store I went.
I was lucky to find the perfect fabric in Hancock. It was originally $19.99/yard. I got it for less than $10/yard. I left out of there feeling like WINNER! Little did I know, I would really be winning when I finished the dress. It took me a total of 6 hours over 3 days to finish the dress.
I've created a review for the pattern. Click here to review it.
Here's the finished product and how I accessorized it. I received quite a few comments. I will be making more dresses from this pattern. They are simple but pack a huge punch in the right fabric.
What do you think of it?
