Continued Adventures in Sewing: The Shirred Fern Dress

Once I started sewing, I couldn't stop!

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!

Jules Reid Sale

Okay, I lied about posting more regularly. June is Crazy Month for teachers. It was very dumb of me to think that it would be otherwise. Let's wait for July for regular posts.

But I have a few minutes today before I get going on some final lesson planning. So I thought I'd fill those few spare minutes with some gorgeous, colourful eye candy.

AND! AND! ANDDDDDD they're on sale! It's Jules Reid resort wear, and the winter line is 65% off and the spring line is 25% off!
