This is my newest dress for the beach and rowing. Or running around town, especially with a sweater over it and leggings under it. I took the pattern from the dress I bought in Florida and the fabric is a remnant I found out our local fabric store. They cut big remnants. I will not be able to wear it on the mountain next week but I will be able to wear it on and off all winter in Houston. That is just the weather we get here. It is very comfortable and I have three more remnants that I can use for this pattern. One is silk and they all have flowers! I have to get flowers some how!
