Simplicity 2580–View D

I have made this once before for Erin.  Here is the review and here is the blog post.
A couple of weeks ago, I was at Paige’s and we were going to shop at Crate and Barrel, Pottery Barn and Home Goods.  I remembered a independent fabric store I had visited years ago and I did an internet search.  It was still open and I showed Paige the address, my lucky day, it was one block off the road we were on.  I purchased this fabric and one other piece for a top.
My dress was suppose to be the maxi-length but I only purchased 2 yards of fabric, so change of plans.
This pattern is quick to sew and I really like the drape front, it doesn’t drape too low.

Should of put on my sunglasses, every picture I was squinty eyed!
