In my winter sewing plans, I mentioned I would be taking part in The Little Red Dress Project again this year. While it may be little late here is my big reveal.
Vintage Shirtdress
For this project I decided early on that I would make the Vintage Shirt Dress by Sew Over It using a lovely red cotton with white hearts and bows.

2018 Year of the Vintage Shirtdress
I love this pattern so much I can already foresee making many more vintage shirtdress in 2018.
In fact, I’ve already been going through my fabric stash and picking out the perfect prints for more vintage shirtdresses.

I just can’t believe that I hadn’t made this dress before, it’s so my style. I love the gathers at the shoulders and the puff sleeves it’s just perfect.
This dress is not only a great holiday dress it’s a great everyday dress and I plan to get a lot of wear out of it.
If you took part in the Little Red Dress project I’d love to hear in the comments below what you made.
Pretty!
