I stated in my last post that I love the color PINK. I am always drawn to anything that has pink in it. So much that both my girls pretty much refuse to wear anything pink, lol. I got this dress for $6. Two things I liked about it was, obviously, it’s got pink flowers and that it has so much fabric, I thought there was a lot I could do with it.
I also liked the pink and brown together in the floral pattern. I decided I wanted to make a sun dress out of it and wanted to use a pattern. I had to go through several patterns before I found one that would work with the amount of fabric available. The entire dress is fully lined so I was able to use it as well. I cut the dress out.
Because the fabric is completely sheer, I cut 2 sets of lining fabric for it. One I used for lining, the other I put together with the floral fabric and treated them like they were one. I did not want to see the seams through the fabric. I sewed the pattern according to the instructions. Now speaking of patterns, I shop mostly at our local JoAnn’s for patterns and have never paid full price. I always go when they are on sale for the lowest price and get them then.
