Second Slip, Slightly Different

Can you spot the difference on this version of the vintage Simplicity 6851 slip?  


It is made with the same light mint green coloured linen. This one has a slight A-line shape compared to the other one. I only place the on the fold the centre front and back from the neckline and pivoted out an inch and a half from the desired hemline (four inches shorter than the pattern length). This one will be gifted as well and the recipient is quite thrilled with the fit.  

The Stats

Fabric:  1.9 metres

Pattern:  Out of print (OOP) Simplicity 6851

Additional Tools and Supplies:  Cutting table, pins, scissors, tailor's chalk, ruler, pin cushions, iron, ironing board, thread, thread clippers, and a chai latte reward after all the sewing was done.  

Happy Sewing!
