I was browsing summer dresses, and felt a little inspiration to create my own. I saw this cap-sleeve dress pattern featured on Burdastyle, and thought it would suit me. I started browsing Fabric.com and found a bunch I liked, and started pinning them.
I also did a little Photoshop magic and put one of the fabrics onto the photo of the finished Dress BurdaStyle had. Looking at this confirms that I'd want to make the skirt a little fuller and a tad shorter. Pockets would also be nice, and a belt or sash to break up the pattern a bit.

Cool idea, to "test" the fabric with the pattern beforehand like that! I like the fabric you picked, it most certainly screams summer.
I think I'm going to have to test patterns like this more often. Looking at it this well helps me to decide if it's something I can imagine in my wardrobe. I think I will make it. It would be great if we got a warm Easter so I could wear it then.
