Going Mod-Quad-ic

I added this simply mod-ilicious 37-year old pattern to my wishlist three years ago, found it last year and just sewed view "A" recently. 

Five-Piece or Three-Piece Easy Dresses

I took a chance on an ITY jersey (from fabricmart.com) with some seemingly random and massive print:
Quadratic O-quations

 Quadratic or Circular

If you are interested in my mod-venture with this classic Butterick, here's a link to my retro blog post.

Update: 5/4/13:
Look what I found! The R & M Richardson dress from bonton.com with a print that somewhat resembles mine, except it has triangles and I have circles. It was the closest I discovered after some random on-line surfing on the net.
Mod-ratic Quad-ratics



Happy Sewing!

      Thank you, SS! I could easily envision you with either dress in the same pose! :-)

    Thank you, Valerie! When I have occasional bouts of insomnia, I work on one or the other...
