McCall's M8402 Vintage 60s Dress (PATTERN REVIEW)

I review & model the McCall's Vintage 1960's Sewing Pattern. Slim, sleeveless, pullover dress, consisting of two main pieces plus facings, in choice of two lengths. Dress has french darts at front, vents in side seams. Front neckline may be round, square or V-shape. Authentic Vintage Reproduction. I also embellish the dress with embroidery and create a crossbody bag on my embroidery machine.

That embroidery has made that dress look amazing, the bag brings it to another level ❤. I was so worried about how plain ticking fabric might be on you so well done on the faux border print. Another win on such a classic timeless dress 👏🏼😘❤️

The ticking is so cute on this Jiffy dress! I bet my mother would love it - it would bring back her high school memories :) She's on vacation or I would tell her all about it. You are so good at your bags - pro level!
