MUST SEW #6 AND A VINTAGE DRESS


My next project is this circa 1954 Simplicity 4651 which I bought from this lovely Etsy Seller
Bec and I spent some Mummy Daughter Time together on Saturday fabric shopping, and I found this lovely (craft) fabric in Textile Traders .
I'm thinking that the dress pattern would look really nice made up in the Polka Dots....
Love Polka Dots!
It's 100% cotton, and now I'm busy making chocolate coloured bias binding for the pockets and neckline. I bought enough chocolate fabric to make the matching jacket for my Must Sew #6!
Bec found some groovy fabric to make some pj's....she thinks I'm making them...
Muahahahah!

  1. That's a lovely pattern and I think a polkadot would be perfect for it! I only wonder: Isn't craft fabric too stiff for a dress like this? Or is it soft?

    I think the combination with the chocolate brown is great! Can't wait to see the result.
