I find inspiration in the weirdest places. For instance, this dress is inspired by a dress some extra was wearing in an episode of The Andy Griffith Show. A black and white episode, no less.
I used the top half of a vintage shift pattern that I have used and altered about a million times. The skirt is just a big rectangle, gathered at the waist.The fabric is a vintage Waverly print.
You could call this a summery dress, but it has hints of fall oranges and greens in it, so I hope to wear it throughout the cold months with a brown cardigan. Maybe to pop down to the diner to meet Thelma Lou and the gang.
That is really charming, and the fit is perfect!

Darling! You did a wonderful job!
Wonderful! As someone who has been mistaken for Charlene Darlin I completely understand…
What a darling dress, and the fabric you chose is perfect. Sew cute!
