Any other followers of Project Sewn out there? When I started following this season, I realized I had sewn, was sewing or in the planning stages of something that fit each of the 4 challenges. This week was PINK and I had a dress already on my cutting table. It started as a navy and white fabric with open cut work, which I decided to back in fuchsia pink. The pink peeks out and the combination looks like a floral print of one solid fabric.

We’re still a long way from spring here, but I wanted a dress with color for a trip to Hilton Head.  I’m so excited about 6 days of not having to wear layer after layer, boots, gloves, hats, multiple scarves, heavy coats, etc…

I used my favorite bodice, (yes, for the third time already this year) which is a combination of two Vogue patterns.

Then added a skirt from Butterick 5285, view B, but inverted the pleats in the opposite direction of what is shown on the pattern.

It created a fit and flair silhouette, one of my favorite styles.  It’s comfortable to wear and has pockets, I love a dress with pockets.Here’s a peek on the inside, just to show it really is two fabrics. Pink-a-boo or maybe it should be pink-a-blue.
