Today, I tackled this Most Flattering Shirt Dress from Prudent Baby (can I just say how much I love that blog?? I'm not a mama, but I still love it!).
I followed the directions exactly as written, except I made mine longer than the one on the blog.
I loved the way the bias tape was used to finish the neck and arm holes. Made for a very finished looking product.
This dress is in the running for my first day of school outfit!!!
The shirred waist makes this dress ultra flattering.
I found some really rad fabric with star constellations on it at the fabric store the other day, so my sewing marathon might not be over!
so beautiful!
