drsue said... Thanks for all the nice comments guys! Lorna: There are many days I wish I had a chest (acutally I used to have one by my kids took it away.) smvite and other SoCal residents: I got that fabric at Fabricland in Orange. They always have a nice selections of batiks, trim, fancy fabrics and other assorted goodies. They told me they are expecting more new batiks in the next few weeks. 1/16/05 4:55 PM

Skymom said... Very cute outfit--I love the fabrics. One question about the top: did you do anything to stabilize the sides of the halter? I'm wondering if those bias edges would stretch, even in two layers. 1/17/05 8:42 AM
Deepika said... Everything you make looks sooo good and this is no exception. Lovely outfit. Your choice of colors is outstanding! 1/17/05 9:26 AM
drsue said... skymom: I did not stabilize the sides. There is just a bit of "give" in the sides which actually helps mold the fabric to the body. I think without the lining there would be a stretch problem without extra stabilizing. 1/17/05 9:54 AM

Nancy Anne said... What a charming outfit. As someone who is NOT a member of the IBT comittee, I will have to just drool over the halter, but the skirt is something I could definitly do for one of myself or one of my girls in the future. 1/17/05 2:15 PM
