Another Heidi. I really love ticking-stripe fabric, and to find it in orange … well, I had to have it:

It turned out to be a very creamsicle-ish dress:

The original post for this dress did not show the wonky side zip:

I’m not sure what happened with that. Is it just me, or is it harder to find instructions on increasing the waist measurement than it is to find instructions for any other alteration? Is it just assumed to be easy, or does no one but me do it, or what? I find that whenever I have a weird side-seam problem, it’s usually because of some wonky alteration I’ve done. (While looking I did find this, though.)

I don’t wear this dress all that often, I’m not sure why. I do love orange …
