I made this dress, handsewn--fear not, it's actually got an even hem, I must have been standing funny for this photo. The fabric, lace trim, buttons, and even the thread all came from Trash for Teaching in Gardena. It's a bit shapeless, because I'm not a great sewist and try not to be too ambitious, but it's comfortable anyway.
