I Got My Freakum Dress On!

ByKrystal Lynch

Yeah, I have some plans to whip myself up a “Freakum Dress.” As Beyonce says, the time has come… I think the Vogue 1020 dress will do nicely in burgany or dark red. What do you all think?

EDIT: I went to Jo-Ann’s to see if I could find some stretchy red knit, but I came up empty, so I ordered two swatches from Fashion Fabrics Club. I was hoping to find something quick to whip up for New Year’s, but looks like this is a project that will have to wait until next year. In the mean time, I am finishing the Butterick 5101 top.

Let’s see how Ms. B. works out her Freakum Dress.
