McCall's 6069 "The Dinner Party Dress"

I have not had ANY sewing mojo. NONE. All I wanted to do was play around with my new fabric.

I was invited to a Birthday Dinner and NEEDED a dress. Ok, I didn't NEED a dress I just wanted a new simple one lol.

I LOVE this dress! So easy to wear and so easy to dress up or down, just by changing accessories!

 

McCall's 6069

Pattern Description:  Misses dress and sash.

Pattern Sizing: 6-14. I made the 12


Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?

YES!
Were the instructions easy to follow? I glanced over them before I started sewing.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved the simplicity of it.


Fabric Used: Rayon Jersey


Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: None

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I doubt if I sew this one again, but I HIGHLY recommend it. 

Conclusion: Great pattern!!!

Here are some additional pictures:

 
All of the pics I got of the back of the dress on me were so dark and blurry. I'll grab some next time I wear it lol.

 
I love the soft pleats on this.

 
I LOVE cowl neck ANYTHING, so yall know I love this right? I've worn it twice since I made it lol.

Cute! I wish I had the nerve to sew on something other than cotton.

My sewing mojo lately was wiped by a tiered gathered skirt. I'm done gathering for a while!

Beautiful dress. That would have been nice for your vacation too. The material looks easy to pack away and whip out.

Great dress! Love the print... I just bought this pattern this past weekend!

The shape is noteworthy! That cowl back is so timelessly elegant and kind of fancy, even though the dress is easy to wear.
