The Hundred Dresses: Day 91

Here’s another McCall’s 8858, which I made back in 2008:

I really love this fabric, even if it wasn’t the best choice for these facings:

This was one of the first side-zip-and-pocket combos I ever did, if I recall correctly. So it’s a bit wonky:

And the back had to be piece, because I didn’t have quite enough fabric.

I wish I had more grass-green dresses. They’re so happy and restful. And since I hide on St. Patrick’s Day anyway, I can usually minimize the risk of being mistaken for a leprechaun.
