Can you believe my friend didn’t let me buy this at the thriftstore? I know! It’s a never worn orange Qiana gown that fits perfectly over two tshirts and a pair of jeans all for $16! I wanted to wear it everywhere, yet the voice of reason put the kybosh on this purchase.

What this dress does have is an interesting bodice. There is a waist seam, so I’m guessing you’d rotate the darts to the CF and slash and spread the shirring. An interesting idea from the dress I couldn’t have.
I wanted to start Leia, but all the material in the stash was either unacceptable to there wasn’t quite enough of it. Argh! Maybe I’ll make Leia into a blouse/tunic out of some stash. That way I can practice the sweetheart neckline facing and have a cute blouse out of it too!
