Note	I made this from my (actually my mothers) stash! This is my first Lekala pattern. I had a little gaping under the arms but I think that that had to do more with me and my measurements. I am short waist-ed but did not put in that adjustment. The main body is a polyester that I got from my mother's stash (circa 1960). It does have a little stretch but extremely minimal. The top and bottom fabric is something smooth and easily frayed (I am unsure of what it is). This was also pulled from my mother's stash. I was so excited to take pictures that I haven't given it the final press yet :). I used a 7-9 inch invisible zip, created bias tape and understitched it so the neck seam would be pretty, and then top stitched to hold down the seams. Total cost of dress $5.17!!!!! I am a teacher and cannot wait till I can wear this to school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
