    Wow! Beautiful and easy!!

    I just made this dress for my upcoming xmas party. It came together so quickly and turned out really great! I'm really happy with it. I'm planning to make a top or two as well since I know the pattern works so well and it's a fun and easy sew.

    Highly recommend it!

    I purchased this pattern with my daughter in mind and made a draft from the tall file. It was more straightforward than I expected, thanks in part to watching Karina of Lifting pins and needles. It was a little short in the bodice for my daughter who is 5ft11in, and I am now endeavouring to find a method to lengthen the pieces.

    I love this dress!!

    My first time doing the dress the skirt portion ended up four inches wider than the top for some reason. It was easy to just cut off the extra fabric. Other than that the pattern was clear and easy to follow. The directions for the pleats made them easy. I have gotten SO many compliments on this dress. I am a size 14 woman and feel so beautiful in this dress. I don't often make a pattern twice but I have several more of these planned out!
