Summertime in Phonix is HOT! My summer sewing plans include making as many pullover rayon dresses as I can. This one is Butterick 6451 in a plaid and floral rayon. I made view A and lengthened the skirt. There is elastic in the waist, neckline, and sleeves. Seams are finished with rayon seam binding and the raglan sleeve was such a breeze to set!
I wore the dress with Restricted Canada sandals and a vintage rhinestone brooch.
