P.S. One lesson learned from this dress: When a vintage pattern tells you to use bias tape to face a neckline…and you think to yourself “just line the bodice–it will be a lot easier”–BELIEVE YOURSELF…it will save you lots of trouble.
It’s Done….and we can officially have Easter.
That dress is SO sweet! You are such a talented seamstress–I’m always amazed by your beautiful sewing projects!

I’m not sure how old this pattern is, but during WW2 people were supposed to conserve fabric, which may be why they suggested bias tape instead of fully lining the bodice.
RAchel, You are probably right… I need to remember that for next time.
