Were the instructions easy to follow? They were good, I really like how the sleeves come together on this dress, very unique.
Likes/dislikes: I have always liked the way this dress looks, so many great pattern reviewsof this pattern. I just wasn't sure it would look good on me, so I made it for Erin.
Fabric: ITY from Fabric Mart
Changes: added 1/2" to bodice, 3-1/2" to skirt length, eliminated lining and the ties and neckline.
Conclusion : I saw this on Erin yesterday and it looks amazing on her, but no pictures were allowed! She received several compliments at school, so she wants another one.
What a pretty dress and a great review.
ReplyDeleteErin is so lucky!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty dress.
ReplyDeleteI can clearly see why she wants another lovely dress.
ReplyDeleteCute little dress! It still looks short even after adding 3 1/2 inches! I really like the print.
ReplyDeleteThat's very pretty--chic. It must have made a hit with your daughter, since she requests another. Always good when you can please the kids with something you make.
ReplyDeleteOne very lucky daughter :-)
ReplyDeleteThat really is an adorable dress...so glad you decided to add those 3+ inches!
ReplyDeleteAdorable! I'm ready to make this one too. I purchased fabric ages ago. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteGreat dress. I really love how much you sew for your daughters, as mine are getting older I find it very inspiring to see others sewing for their older children.
ReplyDeleteVery Nice! I have this pattern and have been planning on surprising my daughter with a dress. You have motivated me.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the fabric you used for this dress. I can just imagine how fantastic Erin must look wearing this!
