Duro Dress

I started the Duro Dress this evening. I first saw this dress on A Dress A Day blog. Then I saw another version on Behind The Seams blog. Then Erin posted a couple more versions of the dress on her blog, adding versions made by others. Several have been reviewed on Pattern Review. McCall's had the first version of the pattern and now Simplicity has a version. I purchased McCall's pattern and this evening I started on the dress. In a previous post, I showed photos of the fabric and pattern.

In the newest issue of Lucky Magazine, they have numerous versions of this dress. Not sure this is really me or not. But it will be different.

  2. Linda, You inspire me with all the sewing you get done. I haven't done any "real" sewing in so long and I miss it. Such is my life right now.... I think I do my sewing vicariously, through what I read on other people's blogs. I do enjoy seeing your accomplishments.

  4. Linda - I can't wait to see your finished dress. I've been thinking about making this for myself, bu am not sure if it's 'me' or not either.

    I'm anxiously awaiting you posts on this!
