I have a trip to Las Vegas coming up with my friend from my stationery days, so of course I had to make some things to wear for it. As I reviewed my progress on the 29 Things at the end of 2009, I realized that I hadn’t sewn any knits since that spring. Knits + travel = easy packing and no wrinkles, so I made a couple of knit dresses.
Here’s the first, with some ordinary fabric from JoAnn (in case I was out of the habit of sewing knits). I used this pattern from Simplicity and, despite cutting the back a little crooked, it turned out pretty well.
The print reminds me of the old casino signs, so it’s perfect for fabulous Las Vegas.
I love it! That print is perfect. You are going to knock them dead in Vegas.
