Butterick 5046

I've had this pattern for ages, and I was super keen to make it up in some fabric recently purchased at The Remnant Warehouse.  So here t'is:
 Sorry about the wonky photo .... after a week of rain rain and more rain, we just experienced a proper summer weekend - but after about 20 photos, this is the best I could get ..... too sunny!!! The fabric is a printed cotton - very soft and a great print - you'll have to take my word for it ....

Easy pattern, I cut a 12 for the upper bodice and tapered to a 14 for the lower bodice. The only change I made was to fuse on some interfacing on the front self facings.

Have a great week everyone!

  7. Terrific fabric pattern placement. Like the feature button also. Looks like you could have stayed with size 12 for lower bodice but this does give it a more relaxed look.
