A Late Summer Dress

It's not too late to whip up a quick summer dress that can take you into autumn with a little layering. This dress made by Mary would be just the thing.

To make this dress, Mary used Butterick 5488 and a heavier weight, slightly textured cotton from designer Amy Butler's Alchemy collection. The short sleeves keep the heavy fabric from overwhelming the wearer, and the fabric's soft, thick drape emphasizes the pleats falling from the round yoke.
