I bought a few yards of Free Spirit's Karavan jersey from Fabric.com. I am in love with it. It sews up like a dream. Butterick B4789 is a twist knot dress that is OOP, but available on some websites. Reviewers on PatternReview.com stated that there is a lot of fabric in the knot and I agree. The abundance of fabric in the knot was not so bad since this is a great jersey fabric to sew. I love the dress that I made from it and it took just a few hours to complete the whole thing.
I am glad for simple dresses that I can complete quickly. My new summer project has become redoing our wood floors after twelve inches of rain fell in 6 hours a few weeks ago. We got about 1/2" of water that covered about a 3 foot by 25 foot section in my kitchen. I am looking at two weeks of construction with my sewing room being part of the project. I'll keep you posted on my progress.
The dress turned out great!
