Peachy Perfect Dress, McCall's M7079

I made a peachy perfect dress for my daughter AND she really liked it.  My sewing mojo has had a hard time keeping up with her latest fashion desire.  I knew I was headed in the right direction with this pattern.  Almost every tween dress in the stores these days has a basic knit bodice and a gathered/full skirt attached.  The skirt can come in multiple lengths and layers.
