Minerva Craft Blogger Network: Sew Over It - 1940s Wrap Dress

7/15/2018

Hi pinups! This vintage style Sew Over It pattern has been on my to-sew list for a while so once again I'm using the wonderful Minerva Craft Blogger Network as an excuse/reason to actually make it! I did wonder if the pattern might be a bit formal for me, or look to much like work wear, so I made sure to choose a bold, colourful fabric in hopes to make it a little more stylish and modern.

What other kind of fabric would you recommend for this dress? I'm generally not a big fan of crepe. :)
