I found this fabric in a quilting store in the city that was closing up.
It 40% off the orginal price but still over $11.m when I bought it.
Orginally I bought it to make a blouse for me, but I landed out smocking this dress in a size 4.

My second confession would be that I have owned this dress pattern since the early 1990's but never made it, because it "looked" too difficult to make.
The pattern is by A Garden of Smocking called Poppy.

I took three colours from the dress fabric and smocked a design with these colours.
It was a lot of smocking and I hadn't the heart to install pockets as it would take away from a rather fancy dress.
