the pattern was just too great:
so i reconfigured it into this:
i think it still needs a little tweaking.... i want to put some pleats at the neckline, and i think i need to take it in at the sides a little more---i want it to be loose and comfy, but think it's still a little too much fabric. but even in the meantime, it's been a great summer dress/swimsuit coverup.
p.s. sorry about the blue underwear! i forgot to change to taupe for the photo shoot.....
p.p.s. i had a windfall: some store/company/who knows what down the street from stephen's office was throwing out a whole load of upholstery fabric, and he snagged almost all of it for me:
i think there's some ultrasuede in there!
