I Could Make That : Cascade Dress

When I saw this dress at Gap I instantly associated it with the following pattern and thought . . . I could make that.

Dress : Cascade Trim Dress from Gap $69.95



To make this use . . .

Pattern : Simplicity 2360 View A

Using this fabric from Denver Fabrics . . .

Navy Blue Cotton Voile - $4.95/yd


Here are a few of my favorite versions of this pattern on the web:
(I think this is one of those patterns that could easily be transformed from wedding attire to beach coverup depending on your choice of fabrics.)

    I love this! But i don't have a serger...do you think the ruffles are possible to do well without one?

    I don't have a serger either and I think it is very doable. I have been thinking about getting a rolled hem foot for my machine which would make it a lot easier.

    I have a serger and on a voile I'd probably use my rolled hem foot. It's a bit tricky to get started but it makes such a nice finish. The serger would be too heavy.

    Kelli, do you plan on lining it? Would love to see your process or the finished product when it's ready!

    i do think that lining is important if you have a fabric like this voile which is pretty see through. I will be sure to make a post once I make it up in a few weeks.

    Thanks for linking to me (I'm wendybirde)! :) I didn't serge the edges, I used my rolled hem foot, but they would be better done by hand, I think.
