My Hazel Dresses

Trying to think about my Spring wardrobe and creating the dresses I'm going to want to wear around town.  The pattern is Colette's Hazel pattern. I made a plaid cotton one. The next one is a stretch poplin in a dark plum purple. I love stretch wovens. For the purple one I swapped out the skirt part and substituted it with a circle skirt.

Spiffy Shirt Dress

I am in love with my new shirt dress. I love the black cotton with white pinstripes. I love the fit. It's a great uniform for me to run around in. I didn't have to alter the pattern in any way and the directions were super clear (Lisette Simplicity pattern 2246). Even the button hole gizmo on my machine didn't act up. I can't wait to make a couple more in great menswear shirting from Mood or maybe also in a floral.
