3/29/10: Planning and Scheming -- Vogue Dress for My Sister

Here's another sewing project I am preparing for. . . It is Vogue 9668.

I will be sewing the third view for my younger sister and this is the fabric she has chosen:

It is a blue floral jacquard fabric made in 100% cotton. I bought this fabric from Denverfabrics.com. And here is a closeup of the flower pattern:



It was a very unexpected way how I came by this sewing pattern. On a Ravelry.com forum I posted a message asking the members if they knew of a place where I can buy Vogue 9668 for under $10. (I'm on a budget you see.) Instead of getting a link, a wonderful lady told me she was willing to send me the pattern that she had in her stash; all I had to do was pay for the shipping. How sweet is that? :D
