McCalls 9420


I've been hanging onto this pattern for awhile.  I finally found some hot pink fabric that was perfect for this. When I say found, I mean amongst my fabric collection. 


A really easy dress to make.  I had a little bit of an issue with the pleats not being completely evenly spaced, but I was able to adjust enough to make them look reasonbly even.  I was going to put little white buttons down the front but decided against it in case it drew attention to the pleats not being perfect.

 

 I was probably a bit too generous with the sizing, but it looks quite good front on.


I'm very pleased with this little number, so darned comfy.  I was also very chuffed to find the fabulous fishnet tights on ebay (only $8).  Alas I only got wear before it's put away until the cooler months.
