Piece of Cake

I've been sewing and created another "piece of cake frock" from Jody's pattern.

Easy Peasy

The bodice was a panelled  linen skirt and the skirt was a piece of linen fabric given to me by my bestie.

I added half a collar and one pocket, just because I like things a little off centre. 

Piece of Cake

New Years Eve we spent at the beach with friends, a low key dinner and watched the sunset.

I decided to whip a new party frock for the evening, the top was a shirt and the bottom was a piece of fabric in the cupboard. I added a little pocket on the side, it seems I'm a pocket gal.

I decided my Piece of Cake Frock just needed a little something, so I added a contrasting pocket and 3 buttons down the front.

My Place & Yours

This week over at My Place & Yours it's all about the frock.

I have lots of favourite dresses some are vintage and some recently purchased but this is my favourite at the moment.

I bought the screen printed fabric last week and made it from Jody's pattern "A piece of Cake".

I love this pattern it's sew easy to make and wear.

Friends & Fabric

I had a lovely day out with Sue on Saturday we ventured off to the Bowerbird Bazaar with hundreds of other people. You could hardly move inside and we did a lot of sideways shuffling along the isles and waiting patiently to peer at the stall holders delights.

I purchased the screen printed fabric on the right and knew I didn't have enough fabric to make another frock but a quick trip to spotlight and I'm all sorted.

Just need a couple of spare hours now.

While at spotlight I couldn't resist some of this fabric either, not sure what it will become yet.

Well I don't know what happened to the week, but I did make my piece of cake dress.

This is the second one I have made and it's so comfortable to wear and easy to make.
