Itch to Stitch released their latest pattern the Melrose Dress.  It’s on sale this week for the launch!  This is a versatile spring/summer pattern that includes the dress that I made plus a tunic and cropped top. 

My dress is sewn in a viscose poplin that I picked up from Blackbird Fabrics last year.  This was very nice to work with and will feel great as a summer dress.

The trickiest part of this dress is probably the neckline binding but I got mine to lay perfectly flat in one go!  I highly recommend getting  some Washaway Wonder tape for making this pattern. It will come in super hand for the neckband, cuffs, and waistband casing.
