Simplicity 9140 Blue Stripe Dress

 I had a blue and white stripe sheet in my stash that I had hoarded long enough!  The tag said it was from Target.  It has a little stretch to it and I knew the Simplicity 9140 would be a perfect pattern for it.

I sewed a straight size medium!  I've never been a medium so be warned that this pattern is very loose fitting & generous in sizing.

I shortened the skirt 2", made self fabric bias binding for the armholes, made the neck facing 1" wider but still topstitched it down.
