Striped dress, McCalls 6319

Today is a sewing day, I decided to use my knit stash (cough, cough pile...) I liked this pattern from McCall's 6319. Looks like a simple dress, I chose view A. I opted to not use the zipper.
I cut a size 10 b/c I had a feeling it would be big based on how the model is standing. I needed a lining for this reddish-pink, cream and blue striped fabric. I chose a cream color. It was a quick sew. The bottom hem is raw because this knit is super thin. Just like the red skirt I just made. I did not try to match the stripes because I knew I could not do it since it drapes. Here is my new dress! Super soft and comfy






Here are some better photos when I had just finished sewing it to prove that I do clean up well, I just do not like to take after pics sometimes.
Fit is great!


Easy sew. Nice dress. Win win!! I might not get a lot of use out of it until after winter but I will try!

Cheers,
Lauren
