    Default Quilted sundress

    It is finished and I am so proud of myself. I made this completely myself even the pattern. I have not sewn clothing for about 20 years and haven't drawn a clothing pattern in probably over 25 years, and never one for my curvy self (quite a bit harder to draw clothes patterns for fluffy people)(well not for anything I have actually finished and that actually fit) It is meant to be a fun summer sun dress. The hexie yoke is pieced, quilted and bound. The strips were 1 3/4 inches and left over from a tie I made for my husband so we will have matching outfits. If I make another there are a few changes I will make, like not gathering the front, and the side seam need some work pattern wise just so they fall a little better. The dress is fully lined and w/ just a little changes could actually be made reversible.
