I've been sewing a lot, even taking photos of frocks! Just not posting, possibly because I have been making the same frock over and over and over. Vintage Butterick 8056:
The next one is View B with 3/4 length sleeves like this one again. The fabric is a grey and black ponte I got from Spotlight last year, it looks a bit like houndstooth too.
As all these are knit fabrics, I omitted the zip and turned and topstitched the neckline and hems.
So quick and easy. I did undo the hem on the green and cream frock because I didn't like how the stitching looked, so that one now has a machine blind hem.
So that's what I've been up to. I've got more sewing to show, but will save that for another post.

It's a lovely silhouette - I can totally see why you'd make this a few times!
ooh, guess I should post the frocks I've been making since we returned from hols shouldn't I?
If it works go with it!
It's a really versatile pattern. I think the cut on cap sleeves worked brilliantly.
This is definitely worth some repeats. Lovely.
My favourite, the houndstooth, but they're all good.
