Final version of the Truffle dress

 My final version of the Truffle dress is completed and I couldn't be happier. Wait, I think I'm in love!

It's funny, originally I wasn't too excited about this pattern. That's not to say I didn't like it, I just didn't know that I was going to become obsessed with it. I want to make this dress in every color! I want one without a ruffle, one with piping along the collar, and one in a Hawaiian print. This dress is SO comfortable, fits nicely (I didn't have to make any adjustments!), and it was easy to sew up.

Luke had to run off to band practice and he only took a few pictures, so I took one of myself :)

I wasn't crazy about the waist area because there was a visible line where the prints didn't match up. I solved that by making a purple sash to tie around my waist.

I made sure to "take my time" on this dress because my Grandma said to. She did NOT like my muslin because the zipper wasn't perfect. Even though I took my time, the dress didn't take long to sew up the second time around. I may have converted to someone that is a fan of wearable muslins :)

Tomorrow I will be posting some of my favorite dresses from the Sew Colette Flickr group. Excited!
