The Chevron Dress

I love this material! I bought it off etsy a few months ago and have been wondering what to do with it ever since. Two nights ago, it hit me that it would make a beautiful full dress and I whipped it up that night. I love spontaneous sewing projects.

I used this same dress pattern (New Look 6879), but made the sleeveless version and added more volume to the skirt.

Scarlett put it on and promptly informed me that she did not like this dress. What a little stinker. Toddlers sure know how to show gratitude, right?
