Liberty!

I made my first Liberty of London garment! I'm usually not a print person, but I loved this fabric the moment I walked into the shop. I think it's is a bit Art Nouveau like whereas my cousin said that it reminded her of African prints. That's probably because I lived in Vienna for some time and she stayed in Africa for a couple of months ;-) Anyway, I wanted to keep the dress plain and simple to highlight the print. For contrast at the hem and inner front, I chose a black cotton fabric. The dress is fully lined with a cotton batiste both for comfort and opacity.
