Vintage Simplicity 8576 for Beatrix
I have met some very, very special friends over the internet.
Some I have been thrilled to meet in person.
My girls have had some beautiful things made for them.
One is a gorgeous knitted vest.
So I wanted to sew Trixie another 'statement piece' to go with.
Originally I was planning a blouse but I had enough length of the linen remnant from Spotlight, to make a dress, so I did!
I left out the extra underlining in the puffed sleeve for a more relaxed look but I added a wee neck ruffle for something different.
Isn't it sweet?
Like last time, the attention to fitting with the tiny wee darts at the neck, waist and elbows blows my mind.
It is a pretty cute dress.
And looks gorgeous with Sarvi's vest.
It scrunches deliciously, as linen does.
Posh fabric, posh pattern but still totally appropriate for fun!
Thanks for reading!

Oh that last photo face!!! Love it. I would never have thought that pattern cover could amount to such a stylish garment. You have a great eye.
ReplyDeleteThank you, nothing like a country child having access to MacDonalds.

You are single-handedly bringing leg'o mutton sleeves back into vogue! I loooove this sweet, simple linen dress, and it's perfection with tights and the vest.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much.
DeleteI must admit, I love this sleeve and linen is just delish!
