geebo said... Beautiful. Great job. How did you bind the neck? I've never done it that way. Thx 7/11/12 5:03 AM
MNBarb said... A great dress on you. The cut of neckline and back are so sporty and flattering. It's great to look dressed up in a garment that is as comfortable as pajamas. Nice work! 7/11/12 7:25 AM
Elke said... Both dresses look fabulous on you! Great job and fabrics! 7/11/12 7:43 AM
MelissaB in WA said... That looks so fabulous on you! I muslined the dress yesterday and I'm not sure if it looks very good on my figure because I have fuller thighs which the fabric seems to cling too. It totally bums me out since everyone is making darling dresses from this pattern. Love the fabric - Annette sends you such awesome pieces! 7/11/12 9:47 AM

carolynw said... Va Va Voom as they said back in the day! You look stunning in these dresses - love both but fell head over heels for the bright pattterned one since that's all my colours. I am going to make a maxi but not this pattern - I would need to somehow get a lovely figure such as yours - me I think would look real far from lovely!! so oing for one with a more flowing skirt 7/12/12 3:09 PM

mrsnodders said... It looks so great! I made this dress also, but I should have just made the 2 piece version because I see so many versions, like yours, that look came out so well! Mine ended up a mini and not a maxi because I messed up on cutting all of the different pieces on one of the other views! 7/14/12 10:11 AM
Angien said... Amazing dress in every way- color and fabric choice with your coloring, fits you like a glove, love how you used one stripe of pattern for the binding (looks so professional) and your accessorizing is lovely as well! You made a home run on this one! 7/24/12 1:59 PM
