Sewing Retro! B4790 #1 - The Walkaway Dress

Half my excitement about sewing this dress is contained in my blog on February 25: Follow The Instructions. The other half is that I just received confirmation that my neice's graduation is outside, in June! I think I can make this dress work. In fact, I know I can. AND I want to wear it to my neice's graduation.

I will definitely be making a "muslin" of the bodice before going any further into the dress. The pattern calls for 5 yards, the material I fell in love with at JoAnn Fabrics was the end of the bolt and only 4 3/4 yards. That translates to one shot.

When I get the battery on my camera charged, I will definitely take some pictures of the notions before beginning. This is so exciting!
