I fell in love with this fabric when I saw it in the new arrivals at Sew Me Sunshine green and pink are neutrals in my wardrobe, and Ive never met a plaid fabric I didnt like!Cotton lawn is my go-to when making summer dresses its soft, breathable and lightweight, and this one is also perfectly opaque, so no skirt lining needed.As this fabric has a check woven through it, I took extra time when cutting out to make sure I was matching the lines across the back seam of the dress.To do this, I first cut one side of the back bodice on a single layer of my fabric, making it sure it was positioned straight.Next, I used my cut out back bodice and flipped it over, using this as my pattern piece so I could line up the plaid exactly
