I’d better hurry. I need to have this dress finished asap and I haven’t finished cutting it out yet. I plan to wear it to my brother’s wedding this Friday. My brother is getting married to a wonderful, sweet woman, and we all couldn’t be happier for them.
So, because I’m in a hurry, I’m keeping this post short, but thought my sewing peeps would want to see what I’m working on.
This fabric, which I’ve had in my stash for about four years. It’s a beautiful soft tie-dye look on embroidered rayon linen. Won’t wrinkle. Sweet!
This dress. The short view, since the wedding is semi-formal. I made it before several years ago, so it should go together fast. I plan on lining the skirt part with a lightweight cotton lining, so you can’t see through the eyelets. I’ll be using a contrasting tangerine solid color for the neckline binding. The scalloped edging on the fabric (which is a double border) will be the hemline, so no hemming required.
And I hope to catch a couple more tanning sessions between now and then too. Pictures after the wedding.
Later, folks.

Very pretty Claire…I’m sure you will be gorgeous!
Love the color and the double border…..you are going to look fantastic! (I’d kill to wear something like that again but this lady shows no upper arms! ha)
