This pink stretch cotton dress (New Look 6848) with black floral print is just perfect for an outdoor party.
I wanted to make an exciting yet soft summer dress that would be great for a little outdoor BBQ. The fabric and zipper was purchased from Fabric Mart (my favorite fabric store) – the fusible interfacing, hook-eye closure and thread were purchased from JoAnn Fabrics. The pattern used was NewLook6848 – size 18. It has a wonderful shape.
