Jet-setting for a few days at the end of the month is no excuse to not meet project deadlines. Wouldn't you agree? As not to disappoint, I stuffed my version of McCalls 6112 in my suitcase and finished hand hemming in transit. I rocked my sew shopping downtown Oranjestad. I really love this finished dress. I do need to accessorize more appropriately; I didn't pack any heels or pearls. And, I think the dress could benefit from the addition of a cute belt and more blousing than I wore here. But, I see this as a summer staple for the office this year!

Your dress is very pretty. It looks very put together, but comfy at the same time.

The dress looks great on you! How did you like sewing with the fabric? I could be wrong but I think I just made a skirt with the same fabric. It's a linen blend, right? The skirt was my first attempt at bias and unfortunately a few of the pieces stretched differently than the others. That'll teach me to not stay-stitch immediately!
