Color Block Suede and Wool Maxi

In a perfect world I can wear a maxi dress or skirt at least once a week.  But living in an area that unfortunately has a winter season, it’s not possible unless it’s a “cold weather” maxi.  This means a wool maxi with suede, yep!

This wool is a light medium weight wool with an incredible drape found on moodfabrics.com here.  It cuts and sews easily, has a touch of one-way stretch.  The suede was also found at moodfabrics.com here, which is a light weight beautiful bright lime green.

The pattern used was vintage McCalls 3074 with the following alterations:

-Added a 1″ collar

-Cut a high low hem
