Leslie in Austin 7/16/08What?? Is that actual *sun* shining in your photo?!? ;-) Your dress is really really cute.
* * *
CurlyCrafter 7/16/08Your dress came out so great! And ya know - my version is actually growing on me and I've worn it a couple of times since I made it. I think you are right about the knit affecting the drape and maybe that's why I don't love-love mine. After seeing your cute version I might just have to try this dress one more time is a thinner, more slinky knit just to see how it works. Great job!

Vonnevo 7/16/08This is gorgeous Melissa ! I must put this pattern on my list :)
* * *
Kaitlinnegan 7/16/08Just lovely! I'm not getting the maternity feeling at all looking at it. I love the fabric!
* * *
EveS 7/16/08I really like this dress! Flattering...NOT maternity!! Great fabric, too.
* * *
Lori V 7/16/08Cute dress and I agree with your dh, it looks great on you.
* * *
Terri A 7/17/08Cute twist in the front.
* * *
Squeezylemon 7/17/08Gorgeous dress on you, great job!
* * *
clin 7/17/08Wow - this looks terrific on you - it sure flatters your lovely slim figure.
* * *
fabeins 7/17/08So cute! Want it.
* * *
Kathi Rank 7/17/08Great dress, I agree this pattern is a winner, and I couldn't agree with your fabric choice more (LOL).
* * *
Luckylibbet 7/17/08Cute! And the fabric is delicious.
* * *
Meggie LuLu 7/17/08What a CUTE dress!!!! I just LOVE it!!! I want this pattern NOW!!!!!
* * *
nicegirl 7/17/08Wow, that's a cute one! Good tip on the sizing. I would probably have automatically gone smaller because of the ease the Big 4 generally include. I'll have to look for this one.
* * *
Winifred 7/17/08Lovely on you Melissa - you've definately gone twisted !!!!!
* * *
nellc 7/17/08Great looking dress, I have this dress cut out at the moment for the knit fabric contest so I hope it turns out as nicely as yours.
* * *
michellep74 9/13/08Cute! I love your new fabric--that really plays with the twist well.
* * *
Amanda S. 9/13/08So cute! I have that red/white/black print as well. Maybe it wants to be a dress after all...
* * *
Karendee 9/13/08Your dress is just perfect looking on you. Congratulations.
* * *
HawkeMorningStar7 9/13/08You look fantastic in this dress...as you know I love anything "twist" LOL I have his pattern and must get around to sewing it...I was thinking even as modifying it to a top..do you think the drape is too low for this? Enjoy your dresses !
* * *
Mahler 9/13/08I love this red, white and black version. It fits you wonderfully.
* * *
EveS 9/13/08Ooh, I love this one, too! Seriously NOT maternity!!! :)
* * *
CharityAK 9/13/08Very, very hip. This is a great style for your body type. It shows off your slender figure fabulously. Love the print. Great job.
* * *
DorothyK 9/14/08Wow. This dress is stunning on you. This pattern has just gone on my wish list. Thanks for the review.
* * *
katlew03 9/14/08I love this dress. I think I will make one for DD#1. I just found out she does not have any dresses she can wear and this one would be nice now and as an early pregnancy dress if that occurs. I checked out Kathi's version and really like both yours and hers. I have this pattern and keep eyeing it when I go through my extensive stash. Thanks for a great review.
* * *
CynthiaSue 9/15/08love the new version girl! where's the clear elastic instruction in this review!!??:):) ha ha
* * *
dwindy 9/17/08Very cute. Looks like the very expensive dresses on bluefly.com
* * *
Jennifer shaw 9/19/08I love your new dress!! It looks fantastic on you!!
* * *
yummymummy38 9/25/08lovely on you, melissa! I often take note of what looks good on you, for it often will on me (IBTC) Twisty dress a winner
