Jane Dress from Shwin Designs


We are in love with the Shwin Designs Jane Dress and Top.  With one alteration that is.  I'm not fab if the back closure technique or the way the facing is turned.  Ok, that's two alterations.

The ombre pony fabric on the right I followed directions for the facing.  This reminds me of the Tobago tank and how it's turned.  Too much clipping close to the seam makes me nervous.  I added 5/8 inch to the pattern when I cut it out and didn't cut on the fold for the back piece.  This allowed me to serge up the back pieces and make the back facing two pieces.  I also stole the button closure from the Izzy top.  Another one of my favorites.
