DIY Maxi Dress + Pattern Review McCall’s 6559

DSCN2868
Hello All!

I am absolutely in love with McCall’s 6559! This pattern was a breeze to sew because I only had to cut two pieces on the fold. It only took me about 30 minutes to complete the entire project. I purchased this beautiful spandex fabric from Fine Fabrics in Norcross GA. I love a long maxi dress because you can wear them in spring, summer, and fall! I have been stepping out of my comfort zone lately buying more colorful fabrics. Anyone that knows me will tell you that I am a plain Jane and I prefer black, grey, tan, and blue! I will definitely be sewing a ton of these to wear in the summer months. Check out the pattern review below. See you later!

  1. That is a perfect summer dress! It suits you :0) mari

  2. How were the arm holes and neckline finished?

  3. This is definitely on my list to get and FAST! You sold me when you said it was just 2 pieces on the fold…SCORE! Turned out nice & great review.

  4. Reblogged this on libberdoodle's doodles and commented:
    looks like another simple sewing DIY! This would be great since they literally do not make maxis to fit me!
