One thing I've wanted to sew this summer is the Rebecca Taylor Vogue 1395
It's a simple but cute dress and has been made up successfully by several bloggers!

So I spent a whopping $5 on the pattern and put it in queue. Well my lime-sorbet-twill-disaster moved this dress right on up to the top of the list!
I only have the front of the bodice done; but it's a little bit of work; cut, apply bias bands to the neckline, top stitch, sew the CF seam, topstitch...Hopefully tonight I can get the rest of the construction done and hem it this weekend.
Can I line rayon challis with (poly) pongee? Or should I go for some lightweight cotton fabric?
When I was still in my 'woe is me' state; I cut out M6754 in this mint(?) green ponte
I realized that with only a tweak or two; I am still well into having a 5 piece mini wardrobe completed!
Dress Progress:
With blazer:
So now my mini wardrobe will be:
B5926 kelly green blazer
V1395 dress
M6841 white drape top
M6754 mint peplum top
NL6130 dark stretch denim pants
