Another Emery Dress! Much like the last dress I made, I made this one with short sleeves so it would work well for all seasons.
[...]
The fabric for this one is super light and airy, so I lined it with some plain black quilting cotton. The lining gives the dress a bit more structure, but it's still very comfortable and light. This dress will be great for the spring and summer!
As I've said before - the Emery Dress pattern is fantastic! This time I shaved off about 1" from the back bodice pieces, and the fit is a bit better than with the previous dress. I was also in a bit of a rush with the dress, and totally skipped sewing in pockets. Oh well!
In the winter I usually stick with dark, plain coloured tights... but I might wear these with some mustard yellow tights... we'll see how that looks! Purple would be fun too :)
I really love the texture of the fabric too. The little dots are raised a bit which is fun. Anyways, not much else to say, but I think this dress might be one of my new favourites!
Nice job Kallie!
