Dottie Angel with Cotton Reels

I loved the Simplicity dottie Angel dress I made last year with aeroplanes, but it came up a bit big, so I decided to make it again with this fantastic fabric from my favourite shop,  The Crafty Sewer Wimbledon Sewing Centre in Balham, London.

I made it a size smaller (a 12) and used pink and pale green chambray for the contrasts and all the bias binding.

Overall I am really happy with it, though next time I would make it even smaller, and I think its the perfect pattern for quirky prints though I think one made of different colours of denim will be my next make.
