It has to be said that I’m well known for making ridiculous dresses from quilting fabrics with completely inappropriate prints. So when I discovered that eQuilter were stocking Dr Seuss fabrics, my heart leapt!
There are seventeen different prints, but I think that these two are the most suitable least inappropriate best ones for making a dress.
The sketch above is Simplicity 2307, the same as the fish blouse I made the other week. The version with the hem band provides the perfect opportunity for using a novelty print fabric without the garment being too overwhelming or “cartoony”. I hope.
I have a couple of fabric combinations already lined up for this dress, so I’ll make a version with the hem band and see how it looks. Then I need to decide whether a thirty-seven-year-old woman should really leave the house wearing a dress with a Dr Seuss print.
(I think we all know that the answer’s yes.)
Dude! That’s not “Dr Seus dress?” it’s “Dr Seuss dress!!! yay!”

Hi Jessica, unfortunately I’m not sewing for other people at the moment, but thank you for asking.
