Washi Madness!!!
I can't tell you how much fun it is to watch your Washi Dresses pop up in the Washi Dress photo pool. It's been just over a month since I released the pattern and WOW you have been doing so many fun things with this pattern. There's scoop-neck versions, classic versions, facings-on-the-outside versions (which is actually what I had in mind when I first designed this dress, so that's fun to see!), sleeves, and more. Enough talk, let's take a look some of the Washi loveliness you've been dreaming up...
Left to Right:1. Freshcut Flowers, 2. Charcoal Washi, 3. White Washi, 4. Light Weight Apparel Cotton
I think this scoopneck version from Kristin of skirt as top has to be one of my favorites. Love the subtle print and belt, so perfect for fall!
A cheerful version in colorful Sis Boom fabric by Sew Caroline :
A gorgeous minty version by Lauren:
Two of the great tops posted so far from Daphne Blue:
1. Washi Tunic front, 2. Squirrely Washi Tunic front
A fun zig-zag top from Elaine (blogged here)!
1. Washi Love, 2. Washi Love
I love how Rachel used elastic casings in the back of this fantastic dress (made with Field Study by Anna Maria Horner) instead of the elastic thread. A perfect solution if you are not a fan of shirring!
A fantastic floral version by Melissa of cut.sew.press.love:
1. washi dress, 2. washi dress back shirring
See how nicely her Washi Dress was constructed with this inside view? So fun.
More fun with facings on the outside:
1. Contrasting Neckline, 2. Hidden Hem
Carrieoke made two!
1. Green with Boots 2. Polka Dots
Brooke has been busy making multiple Washi dresses and tops; here's a top but I love her lilac shot cotton dress and Flea Market Fancy dress as well:
1. Washi Tunic, 2. Washi Tunic - back view
What is it about a Washi Dress with a belt that I love so much? This dress version made with the new Storybook Lane fabric by Ever Kelly is really lovely (blogged here):
And here's a Washi with a waistband added to lower the waist. Brilliant!
1. Washi dress!, 2. Washi dress modified bodice
