What a wonderful dress. I salute you for conquering silk charmeuse and for taking the time to achieve perfection according to Susan Khalje. You will wear this. Count on it.

Wow! You look fabulous in your new dress. You can tell that a lot of time and effort was put into the construction of this garment. I'm sure you'll find just the right place to wear it very soon.

That's gorgeous!!!! I love the fabric!!! I'm taking the class, but am still gathering materials and watching the rest of the lessons. I haven't even picked out my fashion fabric yet. I hope my finished product turns out as well as yours!!! Great job!!!

Gorgeous dress!! The fit is wonderful. I'm watching the class through and thinking about what fabric I'd like to use. Yours is so lovely! Great job.

If you don't have a place to wear that dress, I'll find one for you - it is a knockout!

Oh it is breathtaking! You did a lovely job. I have this class too and, like you, am wondering where I would wear this dress. But just the class is so worth doing for the learning experience. I like that you chose the circle skirt, I have been considering the same. It is so flattering and pretty on you. You are an inspiration to me to get back to the class.

Wow, that is some serious fitting in the bodice, I love it!!! I would wear it watching tv, if I had too!

That fabric is just stunning!! I put in on my wish list awhile back. Your dress is really beautiful.

You did a fantastic job! The fabric you chose is a staff favorite here at Mood. We just think it's so lovely, and you look fantastic in it.

This is adorable!! I love the full skirt. The fabric is awesome and a totally great look on you!

Wow, it looks gorgeous and I LOVE your fabric!! I think your decision to make the front midriff one piece was a great change. I think the center seam would have detracted from your amazing fabric

Great workmanship and the fabric is just beautiful.

jlg you sewed this just beautifully, all your creations are just perfect. You made me laugh when you said " I have absolutely nowhere to wear it" I don't need half of what I make but I'm not about to stop. I look at it as art work, each piece is hand crafted. Striving for perfection is very satisfying. You need to change your sewing skill to Advance :)

I am still wondering if I'll ever have the patience to undertake a project like this. Seeing your beautiful results might make me a believer.
