I get many inspiration ideas from Pinterest. While looking for an idea for a dress for an upcoming wedding I found this photo.
In my stash I found these fabrics that were very similar. So off the sewing machine I went.

A simple tank style maxi dress was first in order. Nothing too exciting, just a simple dress to let the fabric print shine.

Next was a cardigan. I chose the McCall 6444 with a little modification. A little shorter so as not to swallow the dress. I made
this cardigan back in November 2015, I like it but it is a lot of fabric.

I hope I can keep my sewing mojo going. I have been on a roll!
Until next time..................

Your great interpretation really inspires me. What a pretty outfit and perfect for a wedding. Hope hubby is more comfortable with his cast and his pain is easing.
ReplyDeleteThank you! A can't wait to wear the dress next month. Hubby is recovering and still adjusting to the hard cast. He only has to wear it 2-3 more weeks!
DeleteI think this outfit is the best! The simple lines of the dress combo really do let that pretty floral fabric shine & the proportions of the topper are just right. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThank you! So glad you stopped by.
DeleteHow amazing you found fabric in your stash that was almost an identical match to the inspiration picture. Love the outfit! Great spring wedding ensemble.
ReplyDeleteSo glad I have a good stash!
DeleteVery pretty & perfect for wearing to a wedding. And it looks like it will be so comfortable too.
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteHow funny you happened to have fabric so close to the inspiration piece. It was obviously meant to be.
ReplyDeleteI think so too!
DeleteWe have so many of the same cuts of fabric and I'm kicking myself because I only have 1 1/4 yard of it because I bought it for a nightgown!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous dress and so near your inspiration!
We must "shop" at the same place!!!! A nightgown would be cute too. Thank you for the kind comments & stopping by my blog.
DeleteVery nice.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my blog & for the kind comment!
DeleteBeautiful ensemble love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I can't wait to wear it June 17th! I'll try to get more pictures then.
