Tasia, the Sewaholic, just announced her new pattern today. The Cambie Dress. I LOVE this pattern. I especially love the A-line skirt version. Of course, sometimes what you love isn't what suits you best. I muslined the A-line version first. I didn't love it on me. I was quite sad. So I went ahead with the full skirt version (which I also love).
Adjustments: I did an FBA which resulted in a horizontal bust dart being added to the bodice. I also shortened the bodice by one inch in the armscye area. I used a regular zipper, which I handpicked.
The instructions were easy to follow. It went together rather quickly, as well. I made a 12 with a thick waist adjustment. I am so excited to make this dress for Ashley (once she fits into the smallest size of course).
Fabric: Striped cotton shirting with little flowers embroidered all over for the main fabric and white voile for the lining. This was my first time using voile. It is a great lining for hot desert summers!
I HIGHLY recommend this pattern. I love it! Sewaholic patterns are wonderful and make a great addition to any pattern stash.
Sorry for the sad phone picture.
