I really enjoyed sewing today, particularly because the fabrics are wonderful to sew. Also this is a very easy pattern to sew as well. I completed the pattern fitting and adjusting yesterday. This AM, I laid out the fabric and pattern and had it cut out within an hour. I was able to start sewing before DH awoke.
After breakfast, I resumed sewing. If I had not had other pressing things to do I probably could have completed the dress. All that is left to do is sew sleeve seams, attach the black sleeve band and insert all into dress.
The dress calls for a zipper. However I found it was very easy to pull this over my head. Probably because it is a double knit with some give. I think if I used a woven fabric, I would insert a zipper.
The geometric print with black trim seems to give it a '60's feeling. I love the fit. More later.
