A definite blast from the recent past this 2006 pattern. I made my first version I guess nearly 10 years ago. My word where has the last decade gone. I had intended to make version F with the triple frill layering. But of course I did my usual thing in not really concentrating on the instructions when cutting it out I cut the main part of the dress a bit too long and I didn't realise until I'd already put the first frill on. Bother! So rather than unpick a perfectly good frill I just had to stick with the most basic of versions.
Anyway you can't really tell but this is a black and white spot pattern. You know the kind of cotton when you bend over to buckle your sandals it leaves these ghastly wrinkles all through it. I also used some nice buttons from my vintage button collection.
All in all a very easy make and a nice summer dress.
