Designer Stitch Brenda Dress Gray Plaid Sleeveless

 It's wonderful when you find a pattern that fits you perfect and is easy to sew up.  The Designer Stitch Brenda dress has quickly become one of my most favorite dress patterns.  Simple quick and so pretty!

This version is sleeveless since I only had 1-1/2 yards of the plaid double knit fabric from Fabric Mart Fabrics and I liked the longer skirt version.  I'm thinking a red cardigan may be in the works to wear with this dress.

I'm wanting to work on the Designer Stitch Dita Dress or the Pattern Emporium Meet Me There Dress.  We'll have to see which one comes up next!

Designer Stitch Brenda Dress-Jacquard Floral Double Knit with Mesh Knit Sleeves

I made another version of the Designer Stitch Brenda dress.  This version had the v-neck, A-line skirt & pleated cuff 3/4 sleeve. I did like the round neckline better on the previous version but overall the dress is ok.  My favorite part are the sleeves.

I used another double knit floral jacquard fabric from my stash for this dress.  I wanted a sheer sleeve and used the dress fabric for the cuff.  The fabric is a little heavy but will make a nice cool weather dress for Church.

The dress just needed something and another stretch belt from Amazon was the answer.

Fall Plaid Designer Stitch Brenda Dress with Galaxy Tee Sleeves

 I had an idea for the Designer Stitch Brenda dress but with sleeves from the Pattern Scissors Cloth Galaxy Tee.  I just LOVE those sleeves!  I sewed up the Brenda dress in a plaid ponte knit fabric from Fabric Mart Fabrics that had been in my stash for a while.
