The Hundred Dresses: Day 86 27 Aug 2013 | 01:37 pm
Here’s another Vogue 9670, that I made back in 2009. This fabric looks like Liberty, but I don’t think it is, since I bought it in Shanghai in 2006. (How old is that post? I’m talking about DIAL-UP I...

I had really, really high hopes for this Vogue 9670: I love the stripes on this fabric — and I matched them (on the front at least) pretty well: I like the offset stripes of the neck facing: The ba...

I have no idea what the name of this Liberty fabric is, but this pattern is Vogue 9670: Here, you can check out the fabric (it’s Liberty TWILL, how I wish they still made this regularly) and incident...

This is Advance 9440, a peach of a dress if ever there were one: I made this ages and ages ago. Seriously, it was so long ago that the return address on all my letters was “123 Main Street, Pangaea.”...

There’s something fishy about this Heidi: Here’s the original post for this dress, from back in 2010. I bought the fabric back in 2007. (I still haven’t sewn up the other fabric from that post.) I k...

ANOTHER orange-stripe Heidi; this one is matchier: I really liked this fabric, it’s a heavy sateen: The zip turned out okay … Pink pockets! And the back (still matchy): I think after tomorrow we’...

Another Heidi. I really love ticking-stripe fabric, and to find it in orange … well, I had to have it: It turned out to be a very creamsicle-ish dress: The original post for this dress did not show ...

This is without a doubt my favorite Heidi: This is one of the few dresses that I’ve reworked after learning more about the pattern — the first version is here. The original neckline was a bit too wid...

Today’s dress is another Simplicity 5232, in a Liberty print that I don’t know the name of. I don’t know why I don’t make this more often … Oh wait, maybe I do … it’s a pretty labor-intensive dress. ...
