Sunny Day to All, Hope everyone is having a fantastic Sunday. I actually made this dress yesterday morning and decided to wear it today since I was headed out with hubby. This pattern is Simplicity 8174 by the lovely MimiG. I really love her patterns. Of course, we made sure to squeeze in a photoshoot so I may share this beautiful dress with you guys today. I got both sweater knits a long time ago and can't remember where exactly. I figured I would play around with the colors and I must admit that I am in love with the final product. This dress is so comfortable. I kindly like the way MimiG styled it so I duplicated the look. I chose to dress it up today but I could easily rock it with some sneakers. Enjoy these few pics. About the Pattern I love MimiG Patterns. This one was very easy to sew. I cut a size 12 but I could have easily cut a 10 if I wanted it to be a little more fitted. The instructions were cleared and there is a step by step video for this pattern if needed. The only alterations were because I personally have a short torso and I am petite, so I removed about 6 inches from the length of the dress and placed the front pocket about 2 inches higher then indicated in the instructions. Other than that, the final piece was very pleasing to my eyes and hopefully to yours as well. Happy Sewing to you!

The final piece is definitely pleasing to my eyes as well but all your beautiful final pieces lead me to the same question:"when is this woman going to spare some time to make such elegant pieces for other people and start make a living out of her talent?!"
