What a nice job you did and I happen to really like that color. I have looked at this many times and it seems to be gaining popularity here on PR, but I worried about the waist seam as I am plus size also. Looks like you didn't have a bit of trouble. Thanks for your review

This one's been on my list several times when I've been shopping at Joanns and I've never found it. I am going to keep looking as you got an amazing fit.

Yes indeed Cemerio, I was a bit in hiding the last year... some sort of a burn-out and a very bad RSI... they don't mix well with sewing :-(

That you were able to get such a great fit with so few alterations is amazing. You look very nice in your dress.
