This dress was an exploration in ric rac. I love the stuff now. I was always afraid to use it, but now I want to use it on everything!I cut the skirt flair a bit fuller on this one, and I also added pockets. I find day dresses without pockets are near useless.

Progression details of this dress can be found on the blog.

The fabric is linen, and the striped accents are cotton from mid 1940s fabric. I made a blouse from the same fabric.
