| Pattern Review | 1/8/13 3:33 AM | Self Drafted Pattern - 16599-1005 Crossover dress
This is a dress that I made the pattern from copying an RTW dress that fit pretty well, but it was a petite pattern, so I always kept pulling it down. It also was getting quite small and I really never liked the fabric design that much.
