More stash busting

Another basic little garment done and dusted yesterday - I wasn't up for any kind of pattern tracing or drafting or even tutorial reading, so I pretty much just winged it on this one.  Inspired by this lovely dress, I just had a crack, started cutting and it turned out OK.  Of course a few alterations were needed, but Miss 3 is loving it, and pranced around in it when she should have been getting ready for bed last night, so I guess that means it has a bright future for the summer.

I'm so glad it's not a total screw up, as it's made with some precious vintage floral seersucker from Mum's place and some pink cotton I had in the stash (I think it was my Nanna's).  So this dress is special in more ways than one.
