Easter dress with New Look 6000

Every year I at least try to make myself something new to wear for Easter. Well, this year, I actually got it done.

This is View E of the pattern. I was drawn to this pattern by the retro vibe of the style. This view, without the collar, has more of a boat-neck design. The material is stretch cotton. Although I can see it will get a bit wrinkly when I sit, I really like that melon color! This is one of very few solid color items I have in my wardrobe.

For the sleeve, I used these small, clear buttons I had.

This is a really nice dress that’s feminine without being fussy. It’s got very clean lines. The only thing I miss are pockets, but to add them would take away from the simplicity of the design I think.

So tell me, what’s on your sewing table this time of year?
