Hello, again!
June is always one of my favorite months, I absolutely love and adore the super hot and humid weather we get in this area during our summers (people think I am weird, I know, lol). But with that said, I cannot stand wearing anything clingy or not breathable during the summer months. (I will wear poly in summer, but it has to be in a very loose garment!)
When I realized that Fabric Mart had some gorgeous printed silk double georgettes (my favorite right now!) on their website a while back, I knew immediately that I wanted to make something in one of them for a summer sundress. I also realized that since it was sheer, I would need an underlining of some sort, and since they had a lightweight cotton voile in a complementary color available (this is a good choice, too), I made sure to grab some of that, as well, so that the dress could be super lightweight and still opaque enough to wear without a slip (eww, slips in summer, talk about clingy!).
I had to settle in on a patte…
