Tuesday Project Roundup: Party Dress

Over the weekend I finally had a big housewarming party. It was a lot of work, but to be fair, I decided to further add to the workload by making a new dress for it:

This is essentially the same pattern as the other tunic dress I made in May, just with a higher neckline, a shorter hem, and elbow sleeves (I was copying the style below, from EmersonMade--just not in boring black, of course).

The fabric I used is Amy Butler home decor-weight twill, so it's very, um, structured. But I like it. And I pulled it off. Because I can sew dresses AND throw parties.
