"Cool print dresses to sew" sound pretty good right about now, with our summer temperatures hovering around 100 degrees-plus this week!
We'll start with pattern number 5670, seen here in a cute blue print (I can't decide whether those are trees or mushrooms? Trees, I think...)
Below, the front and then the back of the pattern - so cute with it's little floaty butterfly sleeves:
The pattern back:
Those separates do look cool - and comfortable, too. I'd make them in a lightweight cotton or rayon for summer.
(Oh - and just in case you are curious about pattern number 5673, which is also described on that page from Simplicity Fashion News, I wrote a post about that one back in 2014. Click here to go back and read it, if you'd like!)

I have that second pattern, I recognized it right away, even before I saw the front. Those kind of tops, that tied in front or in back, were pretty popular in the seventies. I didn't even recognize the first dress as the same one in the pattern, it looks so different in the "real" photo of it. And as soon as I read: "mushrooms or trees?" I thought mushrooms. I still do! LOL. Love T
I'm voting "mushrooms" too because of the white bases. That is cute fabric. I remember those cap type sleeves well.
