Monday make - Coco Dress



When we visited Rosenbergs in London last December, Lizzie spent so much money that we were offered a free gift and I have about three yard of this jersey by John Kaldor. I also found the perfect Aurifil thread to do the top stitching which picks out the purple in the fabric.



I picked up a brand new copy of Coco by Tilly and the Buttons at a local charity shop for £1. I lengthened the dress by four inches so it was below the knee. No one needs to see my tree trunks legs!! I am pleased with how it's turned out but need to alter the neck slightly on my next version as it gapes a little. However it's a perfect summer dress for me.
