Sue and I just had a lovely day of girly shopping – looking at makeup, dresses, tops, and shoes. Of course we ended up at Gardams, where I bought a dress pattern for the Frock Up. Just got home and read reviews that said it was ridiculously large around the hem… almost 2 metres! (78inches). Well, we shall see. At least no one will see my swelly belly in this one! (I will be making it a couple of inches longer than its shown here. Sleeveless.)

And the fabric I bought is LOUD – pink and orange and brown and green and – well, I’ll show you as soon as it’s out of the washer!
This pattern included a slip which was perfect for the dress Sue’s making – so we borrowed scissors and cut the slip pieces from the tissue pattern before we left the store, LOL! (Wait til you see her fabric – swooooon!)
Off to cut the tissue and iron it…

I love this pattern and can really see it in that fabric you bought! Take the reviews and work with them I reckon – cut, baste, fit and then decide for yourself!
