60s Mod A-line Dress
Hello summer! It’s back to sewing!
I have finally been able to get back to a dress I’ve had on my project list since last year. It’s Simplicity 1609 – 60s retro/vintage, a-line.
I made three different versions of this dress: one in plain black, another in black with a black and white floral collar, and another in teal with a white batik collar having a magenta floral print with blue accents.
