colette macaron

Colette Patterns’ adorable Macaron dress, in gingham with bias-cut pieces for the contrast yoke and waistband. {love}
Notes: I cut a 6 for the top and waist and tapered down to a 2 at the hip. I pulled the shoulder line a little bit forward and made the cups a little deeper. I probably should have dropped the waist and put some hymo on the band.
Material: About 2 yards of cotton poplin with a woven black and white gingham check—the pattern calls for a lot more, but I squeeze my pieces together to use every inch—bought at Mama Said Sew for $12 per yard.
