When I first saw Simplicity 1080, I knew I had to have it.
Am I right? So cute! I wanted to make dress C look exactly like the pattern envelope. However, I couldn't find floral gray fabric. I gave up and went with black and pink.
I made a couple slight changes to the pattern. I wrapped the neck and sleeves in the same bias tape that surrounds the pockets. It adds a nice additional contrast, and I had left over after the pockets. (Also, I had no idea what the directions were telling me to do with the neck and sleeves.) You can't see it in the photo but there is a definite crease in the fabric on the fold. This has happened before and I was not happy to see this, but there was nothing I could do.
This dress was easy and it took only a few hours to make. Aside from that crease I'm happy with how it turned out.
