Modern Leopard Dress


I bought this fabric a couple of years ago from Laura's Fashion Fabric in
White Rock, BC & I love it!  I was thinking of a simply boatneck
shift dress but chose this very easy McCall's 6199 pattern.


It is that type of pattern that you can make a dress
in the afternoon to wear to dinner.....which I did.


I made the long sleeve version & added some Tiffany
Blue bias type for the neckline & cuffs.
I like the contrast!

Sew you later!

p.s. I dont know why but it was hard to photograph this fabric

1 pattern...3 dresses


I have been going through my fabric collection & trying to use some of it up before I buy more.  I have had this pink plaid fabric for a couple of years now & have made 4 dresses with it already!  I still have enough leftover for a maxi skirt.


I used this easy McCall's pattern 6199.  I altered the pattern for the pink plaid dress by taking in the sides about 2 inches so there was no need for a belt.


The long sleeve version with black lace added to neckline & sleeves.


My bold print flower dress from the summer.  If you want a real easy dress to make this is the pattern!




Sew you later!
