Simplicity 1949 Christmas Dresses

Christmas dresses are done.  Going assembly line was the key for avoiding sewing ennui.  I like this pattern, a very old fashioned dress but with some funky pleats at the neckline.  Plus the square neckline is super cute and the little sleeve cuffs are sweet.  Beware though, this is a short dress.  I had to add a band on both dresses to get them to a suitable length.  Hopefully I will have an "in the dress" photo after our Sunday recital.   In the meantime, here they are.
