My second version, sewn using the official pattern, ended up with 2 different fabrics as my eyeballin' yardage skills seriously suck. The top fabric is a performance knit. In other words, something you'd use for athletic clothing. The skirt fabric is a cotton/poly blend.
I sewed up a size 4 with the largest size length again. For my tester dresses, I used my sewing machine but for this bad boy it was all about the serger. (my mom's serger) It took me less than an hour! Good thing too as I wanted to wear it to MG's 2nd grade Awards Ceremony this morning and I spent most of my sewing time at my parents' house altering an old dress of mine for K to wear. Hat's off to those of you who do alterations on a regular basis...it's hard!
I had to giggle when I was going through the pictures K took of me. Looks like my go to facial expression is either eyes closed or mouth hanging open!;)
