Simplicity 3833 in a floral print.

About a week ago I finished a dress using Simplicity 3833 for a second time. It's a cotton, summer dress in a floral print and I'm quite pleased with it even though the sleeves are rather tight and I regret not making the sleeveless version. I hadn't realised that floral prints are in fashion this summer! Anyway, if I sew this pattern again, I will chose a plain fabric or fabrics as in Views C and D. ( There are pictures of this pattern in one of my older posts)

    Thanks, Annick. It's a bit of a tight fit, though, so I'll have to watch my weight!

    Beautiful material - I love the clean, clear blues of the flowers.
    Very nice summer dress and it looks as though you have the weather to enjoy it too (lucky you :D)

    Thank you, Jemajo. Actually our weather still isn't warm enough for summer dresses even though the sun is shining, but in May the weather can change from one day to the next and suddenly we'll have very hot weather. I hope to have another dress ready by then!
