Do you recognize the fabric? It was a recent purchase at this year's ASG Sewing Garage Sale. It was a steal at 2 yards for $4.00! Do you recognize the pattern? It is Simplicity 2369 that I have made once before. Amazingly enough, I actually stuck with the exact dress pattern I originally planned on using for this fabric! I first made this dress back in 2014 in a black and white circle print you can see here.
It looks pretty homely just hanging on the dress form....
I extended the tie lengths this time to make it easier to tie.
I love the fit of the back too - it's nice and smooth. One day I'll learn how to take a straight photo!
Overall, for a wrap dress (actually it's more of a mock-wrap dress), this is a super comfy dress to wear and the front wrap doesn't gap open at all. This will be a pattern that I will make over and over again - this is just version 2!
Stashbustin stats:
This dress = I only had 2 yards and I used every bit of it!
Happy sewing everyone!
