“D” is for Dress #5

March 20, 2012

Sew: pleated pink polka dots dress

This one is for my girl #1:

Complete with pink gingham lining and turquoise bias trim:

The pleats at the waist are a little more grown up:

And a full zipper in the back:

I used Riley Blake Hoo’s in the Forest Flower Jacks in pink:

And Simplicity pattern #9497:

A fun fresh dress for this spring and summer season:
