By Carol Lee

Yes, yes, yes, summer's here, which most likely means you are in the mood for a new summer dress. Of course, the cutest thing would be to make your own. If you're crafty with a sewing machine you can pick up Built by Wendy's pattern book Sew U and stitch up something easy-breezy yourself. The rest of us can resort to buying ready-made.
