Simplicity 1609...

Here's another from the "I bought this fabric when it was too cold to think about sleeveless anything" series. 

I was so excited when I got Simplicity 1609:


I am nuts about this style of 60s dresses.  I generally use 60s patterns but modern sizing makes a world of difference.

I made A, the green one with my own spin on green.


I was a bit worried at first (thinking it might not fit), but it fits amazingly and I love it!  (Note: In this photo it's not hemmed, so it will be a little shorter when it's finished.)

Here's a close up of the fabric and the buttons I used which are vintage rhinestone buttons:


Totally love this dress!
