Notes | Vintage yellow gingham. Fully lined with self fabric and lawn. River stone buttons. Around 4 1/2 hours sewing time (plus hand sewing hem) I got in rather a muddle sewing this one. I tried to use the original instructions whilst dropping in a lining and it didn't work well. Next time I will construct the bodice, then the skirt and then burrito the two together. Lidia was thrilled with this dress and had requested many more gingham versions. She wore it on a date paired with a denim jacket and white sand shoes. *For some reason, my version ended up being double breasted, I will trim the front back for out next version* Lots of pictures to show the insides. I hope it is helpful. |

Thank you Maria, Jane and Désirée, although a tricky sew, it was well worth it. Lidia is wearing it frequently.

Lovely dress, Lidia looks beautiful in this.
The lining makes this look professional and good quality. -

A+ on the construction. The gingham fabric and shorter length gives it a more youthful look. Really nice!
