1950's- Hoedown

Date Completed

August 2022

I made this from the 'Patio Dress' pattern from the 'Gertie Sews Jiffy Dresses' book.

I found this pattern the hardest of all the patterns in the book, the collar is seriously fiddly!

But I sort of love the final product! Its quite an outrageous dress, not suitable for much (especially because it looks its best underneath a huge petticoat) but I'm sure I'll find plenty of occasions to wear it!

Made of floral, medium weight cotton with a CB, lapped zip closure.
