McCall's 8036


 I do like this pattern, even though there are a few oddities about it. The top button does button, but it looks terrible and even on the pattern envelope it looks like it is pulling even on a thin model.


I added elastic to the sleeves because they were very baggy and floppy. If I sew this again I would shorten the sleeves one inch and reduce the width of the band size by half.


And there seems to be a little pulling at the bust and I normally don't have that happening. I think I really like the dress because of the color and the print (fabric purchased at SR Harris, Burnsville in the cotton sale section).
