Poppy Dress

I got to do a quick pattern test for Melissa of Sew Like My Mom this weekend.  I tried out her upcoming Poppy Dress for my oldest girl, and I love how it turned out!  I did the short sleeve dress option, but there is also a sleeveless, 3/4 sleeve, and full sleeve option.  There are also pockets on each side, and an option to do this as a shirt instead of a dress.  Talk about versatile!

I also made my own bias tape for the first time for this project, which is part of the pattern.  Not hard at all.  I have never had a reason to do it, but it was so worth it for this dress.  With two more little girls in our family, I see myself making this at least a couple more times.
