After I finished my project bags I was ready to tackle a bigger sewing project. I bought some seersucker for another Fen Dress soon after I made the first one, and I decided it was time to put it to use.

I like the dress, but I don’t like that I have to wear a slip with it. I don’t own a slip. Well, that’s not true. I didn’t own a slip until I MacGyvered one this afternoon. I had an old layering tank top and a quarter yard of knit fabric. I did some serger magic and created a slip. The slip is fine (even though it looks a bit like a dress a Kardashian would wear), but I think it will be too warm for seersucker. I am now going to look for a slip pattern (if you have a suggestion, please send it my way)

I have the fabric for a t shirt and a pair of pants in my stash. I’m hoping to finish another sewing project next week, but that will involve taping a pattern together so it might not happen.
What are you working on this weekend?
I also am a sucker for seersucker. I also hate to wear a slip.
I am hoping to go to the studio tomorrow to sew. We’ll see.

I love seersucker as well, but maybe this is why I haven’t worn it in years.

I love your dress! Seersucker is great for summer:)
Slips are evil. I bought a dress on Amazon and when it arrived it was just sheer enough that I have to wear a beige bra and slip. I’m very annoyed. Buying the slip cost as much as the dress:(

I hate how most of the clothes I see in stores require layering. I don’t want to wear two shirts, one shirt should be plenty.

I would go with a half slip out of a very light cotton…batiste…with an elastic waist. Cut it the same width as your bottom hem unless the dress is very full.
