On and Poplin - McCall's 6520

Love the hemline on this dress!

I don't have nearly enough white in my wardrobe.  An unfortunate but well noted realization that I came to with the making of this dress.

Love those raglan sleeves!

I originally wanted white linen (100% - in all of it's wrinkled glory!) but unfortunately the cut that Virginia has in her stash fell short by about half of a yard. 

Just love!

Virginia had quite a bit of this poplin fabric on hand.  I remember why she'd purchased it:  To use as backing for drapes that she was going to make for her bedroom. She got it from a local fabric store (who has since gone out of business) that specialized in Home Decor Fabric.  

After having the dress on most of the day I figure it couldn't get any dirtier! (The only disadvantage of wearing white)

I fall hard for shirt dresses and this one is no exception...even without a collar.  I contemplated the three-quarter length sleeve but decided to go with the shorter sleeve instead.  

Wrinkled Glory!

I liked the rolled sleeve which is View A but prior to finishing the sleeve for that style I discovered that I liked it "as is" so I finished it with a narrow hem.  But now if the urge hits me?...I'll roll 'em up! 

Hip bones in motion!

I didn't want to bother with a slip so I underlined (the whole dress) with the same fabric. 

At the request of my photographer, I'm trotting - #needtodothismoreoften!

I decided to go with a multi-colored - brown, creme and white button instead of just plain white.

Did I mention that I love these sleeves?!

Another easy dress pattern with great results!  I'm feelin' it!

Church gear! - Love the blue hues in this pic!
