I think this is what I’m going to make with my silk. I found it here.
I also got a 1950′s shirtdress-ish thing from the same site. I have some checked, polished cotton to make that.
Wish me luck!
UPDATE 28 November
I just cut out my shirt dress pattern. Get this: in 1950 I am a size 16. SIXTEEN. Now, I’m a 4 or a 6 depending on the label. Ha! I knew they had changed sizes over time but wow.
LOL! That’s so funny! I love the style. I want to see how it turns out! As for the size thing, yeah, I weigh more and am thicker now than I was in middle school, but I wear a smaller size. I feel bad for those who used to be a size 0 because what size do they wear now if they are still that thin? a size -5?
