Last dress of the summer

I started this Oliver and S Tea Dress a while back. It came to a halt when my machine refused to to saw button holes or anything other than a straight stitch. I have been promising myself that i will get it fixed when i have a little downtime in between projects. But they just keep coming. First it was the pirate vests, the ongoing mermaid costume and now, after moving, i have to re-hem all the curtains again. It seems as though there is never any downtime. It really doesn't look like my ole machine is going to get fixed anytime soon. So in a last ditched attempt to get some wear out of this cute little summer dress before the weather closes in or madam grows out of it, i opted instead for some pop snaps.
