A duro. I have been saving this bright cotton lawn for the perfect dress. And I absolutely adore the shade of green in the contrast fabric. The pattern came together nicely, but be forewarned it runs b-i-g! For me, the dress has a peasant feel with the ties. It will get a lot of use this summer…now if it will only warm up!

This is adorable – It's winter here and this inspires me to get going on my summer wardrobe! I love the green contrast and the border print. Great job!
I love your fabric choice. Nice job.

Very nice use of colours.
Kelly green is my favourite shade of green.
