New Look 6968 version 2

Here is New Look 6968 again, in scribbly ponte. I made view B minus the welts, and with the sleeves from view D.
I wore her out to dinner tonight with these beads, which broke and scattered all over the restaurant floor. I can report the frock is very practical for scrambling under tables retrieving beads. Tested in the field!

And yes, I had strung the beads myself. Please note: blog is not called "I wanna bead and roll all night". That is all.

Mmmm frock and eeeek beads! They are bad bad misbehaving beads.

Definitely thinking of getting more of that ponti for a similar frock...

So flattering! I make my own jewelry but it is almost all wire wrapped because I'm so afraid of strung jewelry breaking!!!

This is a lovely dress. I think I need this pattern.

Very pretty and sleek dress, and the beads look incredibly innocent in your photo.
