A-Line Red Crushed Velvet Knit Dress

Girl M. needed a holiday dress.  I used her usual TNT A-line dress with  elastic 3/4 length sleeves.  I estimated the length using all the fabric.  The fabric was cheap and I hope it washes ok after wearing.  If not, no big loss.

I added fusible interfacing strips along the neckline and turned and stitched for the neck. I hemmed the dress with a 1" bottom hem.

The dress looked so much better on Girl M. than my dress form.  She received many compliments at Church.
