Time to sew?

Finding time for sewing is always a challenge, it feels a little selfish but having just taken a week off work I can fully justify all my me time, this time at least ;-)  Three new dresses, a marble bag and 3 cushion covers later it was a least productive week.  

Like many people I have been thinking about my winter wardrobe.  Having looked at its contents I decided that I needed more dresses.  Can I ever have enough?

With this in mind I've completed my 3rd Simplicity 2444 in a dark blue lawn not a winter weight fabric I know but I work in a hot office were overheating even in winter can be an issue. 

This time I made the dress with long sleeves and finally managed to crack the baggy neckline first time. Yay!  

How?  I cut the shoulders in a size smaller to the rest of the bodice meaning that the shoulders sit more comfortably.  I also deepened the neck line a little result a better fit on the shoulders and not to tight across the neck :-)
 
Overall the result is a better fit
