The Road to a #MeMade Wardrobe:  McCalls 7562

I recently got rid of a dress that I’d made years ago because it had gotten pretty pilly.  I loved that dress because it was like wearing a nightgown.  I’ve been without it for maybe 2 months and just had to make another one.

Pattern Edits:

1. I added a curve to the hemline because my husband requested he see a little more leg. 

2. I am contemplating using a premade bias tape around the collar because I really don’t like how the collar lays. But I’ll hold on that because I want to see how it settles and wears first.


Lessons Learned:

1. No lessons here really.

This was a pretty straight forward pattern and only took a few hours.  So I’d put it on the easy side of the scale.
