This is a Style Arc Montana dress, made in rose linen from Fabric Godmother which I started sewing in August and finished in September.
I tried the bodice on before I attached the skirt and it looked OK, but once I'd finished the dress the armholes didn't have much leeway in them, so I cut triangular gussets on the bias, unpicked the side seam and inserted them by hand. It was a bit of a faff, because I'd completely finished the dress (all seams overlocked), but definitely worth it because it's improved the fit significantly. I do like this pattern, so I'll modify the armholes before I make it again.
And finally!...Now I'm all caught up with this year's knitting and sewing.
