pinafore sun dress...

 
 

a simple afternoon in Ikea and lucky for me they had a sale, so of course I picked up a few bargains and a few essentials… the one which has kept on giving was the £12 duvet cover and pillowcase set

i also love the flat fabric covered buttons that I am saving for a rainy day project too.

in principal this is not the detail that I want for this dress but to make the toile in this stripe fabric it is necessary to adjust according to the stripe, so to maintain the clean lines i had to cut the bodice in one piece.

THE ISSUE: now I don’t know how I WANT TO FINISH THE FINAL GARMENT. choiceS, CHOICES…

the perfect sun dress for a legendary summer, on the days when the weather spiked over thirty i was in the park and delightfully cool…

I almost got a tan.
