Just another McCall 7561 Dress for Church. I raised the neckline on this version but still it's wide on me. Maybe next time I'll get it perfect.
I wanted elbow length sleeves with a cuff and midi length. Yes, this time I followed the directions and the dress went together so much easier!

I wanted a cardigan to wear at Church and thought something like this pleated shoulder version but it's a little too boxy/flowy.

Cardigan? |
This mauve pink brushed ITY knit matched perfect. Then I had an idea of some type of waterfall cardigan.

Fabric choice |
I took my TNT cardigan pattern and added a large rectangle onto the front pattern piece. Easy sew and the cardigan feels sooooo good! I hope it doesn't look too much like pajamas.

Until next time..............

Very feminine. Doesn't look like pajamas at all.
ReplyDeleteLovely combo. Not like jammies at all -- but I bet they're as comfy as jammies! Double brushed jersey is sooo soft!
ReplyDeleteI love this dress in the beautiful floral print, with the coordinating water fall cardi. Such a pretty outfit.
