So ta-daaah! Here it is, my second Cashmerette Appleton dress:
That silly pose worked pretty well, huh?
I like this picture so much better than the ones from my previous post. Even the not-so-silly photos worked better after fooling around a little bit, don't you think?
Hey, if silliness is the key to better photos, you can count me in!
Okay, now back to normal (yeah, right). Let me boast a little bit about the details ;-) For this version, I cut the short sleeves and added the cuffs from the Appleton top hack & expansion pack, which was easy to do and ended up at the perfect sleeve length for me, plus a very neat finish:
And that Hilco jersey knit is not only the cutest little fishy print ever, but also has a nice firmness. On my first Appleton, the waist tie was fairly flimsy and could have used a little reinforcement, but with this fabric, there's no sagging or stretching. I'm pretty sure this dress it going to behave itself...
Aaaaahhhh, feeling better already. I wish I had a little time to sew right now (so many cool fabrics piling up, waiting to be turned into dresses and tops), but I have to get back to work. I just got a list of participants for next week's workshop, and I can't wait to get back to class. So let's see, where do we start...
