Ok, I maybe should use some of my other many, many patterns sometime soon, but I love this one, New Look 6068, so much as it can be adapted in so many ways. This is my most recent attempt.
I have been inspired by all the cute, 60's style dresses with a lacy insert at the waist, adding a sexy twist to a simple shift dress.
I decided to use this lovely floral fabric I bought for a bargain £2 at Walthamstow Market back in March, and had yet to find a use for. It is perfect because it literally NEVER creases!
I adapted the shift pattern by cutting it at the waistline and making a separate top and skirt. I then joined them using wide lace and added a line of elastic at the lower edge of the top, and the upper edge of the skirt. No zips required.

Hope you like my latest adaptation! Thanks for reading x
