FO Yellow Maxi Dress

I mentioned before that I was following a tutorial that I pinned on my Pinterest page for a maxi dress. The tutorial was written by Katy at Sweet Verbena. It was amazingly simple and the finished pictures she showed were AMAZING to say the least. After deciding I needed a dress for my son's 2nd birthday party, I jumped at the chance to make this dress. I purchased a polyester blend, jersey knit fabric in a very loud yellow.

I then followed the step by step process of making this dress. It would have been an even faster creation had I actually started sewing right. Instead of putting the right sides together, I put the wrong sides together. It was torturous ripping out the stitches seeing as I do not own a thread ripper.

I left the length as the tutorial stated and it was extremely long. I was tempted to cut the length to where I wanted it, but didn't. Instead, I followed the directions and washed and dried it first. This was a great idea seeing as it shrunk up a bit.

LOVING IT!

so fun!

my new favorite!

This dress is by far the easiest thing to sew up! The tutorial that Katy drew up was so easy to follow and created such a great dress! You may be seeing more of this dress but in different colors :)
