Little Blue Dress

Vintage Simplicity 6220 with bits & pieces of Simplicity 2444 (sleeves & pockets)
Fabric from Joann

Sorry I don't have a full view, I thought I had more pictures. I'll take more once I put it in the wash to take out the wrinkles & Korean BBQ smell.

I really really love this dress, except for two woes: vintage dresses were meant to be worn with bullet bras, so it's a little pokey in certain areas. I tried to fix it, but alas. Also, I'm a little disappointed that the print takes away from the diagonal darts which is what drew me to this pattern in the first place. Ah well. I could find something wrong with everything I make.
