Summer is here and it was time for a relaxing, cool summer dress. McCalls 7537 accomplishes the need for a relaxing summer dress with style. A V-neck short sleeve bodice with a gathered midriff and a side zipper with a gathered skirt made from a 100% lightweight rayon Challis was a perfect choice for this style. The fabric from Fabric Mart laundered up beautifully, needs no ironing, and was the perfect choice for a cool summer relaxing fun dress. Thank you Fabric Mart!

Dory made this adorable top and skirt very easy and quick out of one of her favorite fabrics from Fabric Mart Fabrics. It’s a 97% cotton poplin shirting material with a 3% lycra. The floral design with the vines just grabbed her attention right away!
The skirt has two flounces at the bottom and elastic waistband. She used Simplicity 9570, a very easy pattern. The only change she made was she added side pockets, just because they are so handy!
The top was made from Simplicity 1969. She lost the instructions on page two so used the burrito method for the yoke on the back. The only problem was that was she had to then draft her own facing for the back. The fit was perfect and she loves her new little outfit which can be worn together, or as separates.
