I mean, in Boston we had 50s and rain during much of the week (cold enough that I dug out my light fleece jacket for a couple days), but it is in the low 90s right now. So, if the weather is like that in Boston, the warmer weather should be slowly getting everywhere soon enough. It just has to get warmer.

It looks lovely on you. I am yet to make more than an apron and am a bit scared so I am impressed it's your second garment! Oh and hello! Delighted to be on your team! Can't wait!

Am going to be in Israel sans sewing machine all summer, or I'd be locating myself a pattern on the internet right now. And you know, it often happens that when I sew from commercial patterns, I do everything right--measure my body, make the appropriate size for the measurements--and then thing comes out ginormous. Do you think we have different ideas of ease or something? I still continue to just follow the directions though, b/c I can always take it in, but it's sorta annoying.... Good job on sewing project #2! I'm impressed. :) Adorable dress! Am going to be in Israel sans sewing machine all summer, or I’d be locating myself a pattern on the internet right now.

It looks fabulous on you. I miss the sunshine too but I'm sure that a gorgeous Portland summer is right around the corner. At least that's what I tell myself. I love that dress!

It's been miserable here too - there was that one apocalyptic weekend in mid-May (three weeks ago now) where we smashed through 100+ degree records... then the temperature plummeted to 10 degrees or more below normal, icky overcast skies, and wind. Today was FINALLY a nice day, mid-70s, though that is still more than 5 degrees below normal, and no sign of reaching that "average" temp until mid-next-week. Sigh. I am still using flannel sheets and a down comforter. I say, bring on the heat!! I too like your fabric choice!
