Ta-da!

As if by magic, my dress was complete!

This dress was made from the Simplicity 2886 pattern. It didn't seem to take as long as the last and I seemed to unpick a lot less, which must mean I'm getting better.

There were some new skills to learn like putting in pockets, inserting a side seam concealed zipper and a scallop shaped neck line (?).

All in all I'm quite impressed with my new sun dress, it's a shame that now I've finished, the sun has disappeared!!

The new dress is almost finished. I was set back a little as I hadn't read the pattern instructions at all. If I had, I would have noticed that it had a side zip prior to doing the seams lol!

Here's a sneaky peek.
