I made this one in about three days after I finally finished those curtains. I’d used the basic pattern before for the giant paisley shift and just re-drafted the neckline. The slit means it doesn’t need a zipper, so that helped keep things speedy.
The band at the bottom is leftover Liberty of London fabric from the scarf I made for a friend in December. I like how the William Morris pattern looks almost like an Indian print when you put it on this silhouette.
…and here’s a gratuitous baby shot. Because dress projects kind of pale next to “here’s a new human” projects.

Ok, the tunic dress is so cute! It is perfect with that band of Strawberry Thief. Just tell me when you are wearing it, so I can wear my scarf…TWINS!
And you are a born-natural when it comes to being and aunt.
