Often times I'm inspired by my fabrication so I hunted through my stash to see if there was something that appealed to me. Nothing.....So what's a girl to do? I guess I needed to go shopping!! Luckily for me I found a print that completely "Strikes My Fancy"......AND it's perfect for this sew-along too! I'm a bit of a "blue gal" so I was drawn to this print as soon as I saw it. Reminds me of all the shades of blue in the ocean!! It's a cotton blend with a soft hand. A great choice for our hot Florida Summer's.
Even though I have several shirt dress patterns in my stash, there was a McCall pattern sale on at Joann Fabrics last night, so I selected McCall's Pattern # M7387. A simple shirt with extended length for the easiest shirt dress ever. I plan to make view E with sleeve A.
If you're interested in joining this sew-along and all the fun, check out McCall Pattern Companies announcement post here. It's still early enough to pick a pattern and some fabulous fabric and jump on board. Looking for a little inspiration? Check out McCall's Shirtdress Patterns Pinterest Page for lots of ideas and options. Make sure to also join the McCall Pattern Company Shirtdress Sew-Along Facebook Group and share all your progress too! All skill levels are welcome.
Hope to see you there!
Have a Happy Creative Day!!

Thanks for sharing about this sew-along. Always am a little late and therefore never join. This will be my first one.
ReplyDeleteGlad you've decided to join in on your first sew-along! I'm usually a little late too the party too, but not this time! Don't forget to join the FB group too. A great place to get feedback and encouragement as you sew-along.
