I bought this fabric for $2.99/yard at SR Harris about a year ago or more. (I believe that it's 54" wide, so it was a screamin' deal.) I thought it would make a good quilt back. Turns out, it makes a great dress! I have enough leftover to make my daughter a garment (of some kind), too. It has a beautiful drape and it's nice and soft. I LOVE gingham.
This is the washi dress in size medium, with no alternations. I LOVE the fit. It's quite comfortable, and cute, too. I have my next two planned out already. One may be red and white polka dot. I'm sure that comes as no surprise! :)
Adorable dress! I bet you start a new fad.
ReplyDeleteGingham is Back!
ReplyDeleteVery, very cute! It will look great in polka dots, too!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely cool, Wow!

ReplyDeleteI made a washi dress about two weeks ago and love it. Really comfortable and good fit. So I want to make another one. I bought a knit fabric and am going to give it a try. If it works out, it will be so comfortable,
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable! I love it!
ReplyDeleteVery cute and perfect for summer!

ReplyDeleteWhat is a Washi Dress and where can I buy the pattern? Love it..
ReplyDeleteOh, never mind; I just saw the link... lol
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute!!! I have always loved gingham. Probably starting with 2 little gingham dresses my grandmother made for me when I was a wee girl. Then of course so many of the women in the family wore gingham aprons. Today I collect aprons and my very favorites are the gingham ones. And then the feedsack aprons. I have around 800 aprons now. Terrible I know. :) But I love them.
ReplyDeleteBe sure to post whatever you decide to make for your daughter out of the gingham too. I'll be anxious to see it. And great job on the dress. It's beautiful!
Cute dress and a perfect fit. Can't wait to see it in red polka dots.
ReplyDeleteVery nice dress and it looks so comfortable.
ReplyDeleteI like the pattern.
Black and white always looks so sharp and clean too. It looks fantastic.
ReplyDeletenow you have matching outfits with your little one and scraps for a quilt!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I haven't made the washi dress yet, but it certainly is pretty.

ReplyDeleteYou are adorable in your Gingham Washi dress. See, who said quilt fabric had to b for a quilt:) It' s my go to pattern...4 in my closest:)
ReplyDeleteMake yourself some shorter tunics to be worn w/capris or a skirt. endless wear, endless seasons. Enjoy!
I just discovered the washi dress a couple weeks ago. I want to buy the pattern but not sure I can make it. Not good at making clothes:) Is this an easy pattern for us novice clothes makers?
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a very flattering style and the fit on you is perfect.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Looks great on you.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to choose which I like more-- the bargain you scored on the fabric or the dress itself.
ReplyDeleteGreat result!
