This continues a short series of projects I’ve had finished for a while but am only just getting around to blogging. (I’ve actually only just finished fixing the hem, which was an atrocity of shortening and not properly measuring. If you’re going to shorten always measure and then measure again!!)

From The Year 2050 |
This is Butterick 4919, one of the recent “retro reprints” that Butterick was doing. Originally from 1952, it’s been redone for modern sizing and such. Read more about it at The Year 2050.
Great job, love the fabric and color and how cool that your petticoat is in the same color too!
I love this fabric!
I had the same problem recently while shortening a skirt. It came out uneven, and I had remeasure and hem again.

Wow! Orange is YOUR color. Mos def!
I love this dress!
I agree with the others… the fabric is smashing, and you look great!
