This is Amy Butler’s Lotus Dress that I made with Park Slope fabric by Erin McMorris. I thought that the darker two-tone fabric would work well as the body of the dress, since it reads nearly solid. Pair that with the super cute, bright birdie fabric, and I think the whole thing comes together! Plenty of pattern but not too over the top. I am also proud that I feel this dress really fits. The princess seams allow for you to take it in or out all the way down the body, making for an easier time fitting the garment. And we all like that, don’t we?!
This is one of my summer favorites, and I think I will be wearing it to Stitch Party this Friday. Our Amy Butler Trunk Show will be here just in time, so be sure to stop by Friday from 5-8PM. Peruse Amy’s designs in person, have some wine and a snack, and get your weekend off to a creative start!
If you’ve made a Lotus Dress or any of Amy Butler’s patterns, don’t forget to email me a photo by Friday at midnight. You’ll be entered to win Amy’s new Field Tote pattern and a yard of Midwest Modern fabric for our contest. Keep ‘em coming!
