Cut a hole in the back of the dress with the serger! Not going to bore you with how it exactly happened because I've had more than one disaster lately.
For something easy and quick, I made up this skirt using B5147. I figured I could handle this without having another mishap. It is lined and has a slit in the back and a back center zipper. The fabric was from a piece leftover from a dress I made last year.
Of course, I left the dress incomplete as I did not do anything more to it. I thought about saving it for something to just wear around the house after I close up the cut (and in case somebody stops by). So I'll look presentable at least.

It came out great and all faith is restored, LOL!
A couple other projects are cut out and one already in the process and hope to share those soon.
Have a great sewing day!

If you have an embroidery machine, some strategically placed designs would save this dress.
Jackie, I was thinking the same thing as Dressed@atee, can you darn it on your machine? And then embroider a cute design on it? I agree that this can be salvaged.
Thank you so much! I hadn't thought of that idea. I will have to see what I can do. Thanks
This was my dress ladt year. I L*VED wearing them...Yep, embroidery will undo that mishap :)
Oh my goodness...I have done that also :) But I sure do like the skirt...the fabric is so pretty.
Ugh, I hate that! I have not yet done anything unsalvageable (yay for my love of prints) with the serger, but it has definitely bit into places it should not! I hope you can rescue it.
Hoping you will be able to save the dress. Like the skirt and just cut 2 skirts from b5147.
