Tencel Shirt dress

I almost forgot that I'd made this dress for one of my Minerva makes.

A while ago Bethan decided that she wanted a short tunic style dress in chambray and when this fabric came up for review I knew it would be perfect for the job. I've never sewn with Tencel before this but was pleasantly surprised at how nice the feel was.

I used a Burdastyle #132 from 02/2013 issue of the magazine and altered the pattern to create more length. It's definitely a summer weight dress and I doubt it will get much wear until the weather warms up unless Bethan decided to layer it with leggings and a sweater.

I was sent this fabric free of charge by Minerva in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own and you can read the full details over on the Minerva blog.
