WORK WEAR WEDNESDAY (MEOW)...
...I have several animal print tops and skirts, but had really been hankering for that print in a dress since seeing one made over at TellTaleTasha's over a year ago. Her dress resonated over and over in my head, and although that Vogue pattern did not work out for this particular fabric, I still achieved my animal print dress vision using the McCall's Pattern.

I got so many compliments on this dress during the course of the day that I completely forgot about my pattern placement mishap in the bust area of the dress.
I love the dress and will definitely be using McCall's 6886 again in the very near future...
