One of my very lovely friends has such utter faith in me that she asked me to make her  a dress! We were in Merchant & mills (again) as I was buying more fabric, and she spied a pink version of the blue & white one that I have, and she does love pink, and she asked if I could make her a dress? I said I’d have a go! Basically she was asking for a dress version of the top I’ve already made. And Kristina was so easy going about it that there was no pressure, other than what i put myself under. I just didn’t want to mess up the fabric she’d bought!

Here it is!

The back. I like the neckline at the back.

Seams finished nicely. Way better than my first top!

Fairly tidy neck at front, slightly wonky stitching though!

Kristina was very happy with it, but decided she would like pockets too. I’ve never done pockets, so this was another little challenge. She sure does like to give me little challenges. And every time, I say “I’m not sure I can do that”, and every time Kristina says ” You can do it darling”.  And so I have!

I’ve put things in the pockets so they can be seen better.
