JennyAnne said... If you click the photo (or go to her blog), you can see the dress on a dressform. It looks great! This is the first patter I traced from the August issue, but I still haven't made it up. Your version is beautiful. 9/13/09 9:04 AM

wzrdreams said... Thanks for the review! I've got this traced... I need to make a muslin to check the fit. I haven't picked fabric yet though. 9/14/09 2:41 PM

digs57 said... Great review, thanks! I love this dress' tech drawing in principle but I also fret about the slightly weird across-the-bust dart placement.... and the high funnel neck... and now you mention the overly wide shoulder "wings". And it clearly needs a CB vent. All in all, a bit of tweaking, eh? Do you think it would work in a very stable knit, like a doubleknit? 9/20/09 9:34 PM
