I would believe that this fabric would be hard to work with. The end result looks fabulous!

You look very beautiful in your outfit, and in that color. Not everyone can wear that Shiaparelli pink, but you certainly can. Really wonderful.

You look wonderful! You can certainly carry off that color and what a creative way to finish your pieces. I had the pleasure of taking a class with Connie Long a while ago and loved it, she is very nice and makes it all so easy.

What a great color! I love your pinked hems, too. They really add to the joie de vivre!

What a great outfit, Harriet! This is another one of those patterns that I wouldn't look at if you hadn't reviewed it with such a spectacular fabric! -Ann

You are such a creative problem solver. I love how you tackled each and every challenge step by step and showed us the whole process, making this review very educational on top of the fun of just looking at the stunning photo.

This is a great outfit on you!!! You have yourself a merry little xmas in your lovely new outfit!

A really simple pattern made from a dazzling fabric -- it's a knockout... and a great color on you too.

You've done it again, Harriet - combined a stunning fabric with simple lines to come up with an outfit that would cost $1000. Actually, Famous Designers would have added a few hundred for the cleverness of the pinked edges....Make that a $1400 outfit. Beautiful.

So gorgeous! I love how you came up with the pinked edge for the hems. They look great!

Great outfit and fabulous color on you. I bet you turned heads when you entered the party. Love the pinking shears solution.

Absolutely stunning! Clever idea with the pinking shears.

It seems like I'm repeating what others have already said, but...beautiful outfit! This color was made for you. I like the pinked edges too...very cool solution!

Danvillegirl said...
I think your outfit looks fantastic. I am sure you were a hit at the party. I have not worked with this type fabric in several years. I wish I knew what you shared about the spreading of fabric and cutting then. You did a great job. Nice idea about using pinking shears also.

Really neat; love the pleated fabric. Even your muslin is great.

Fantastic!

How clever you are! That fabric would just sit in the corner snickering at me, if it had been up to me. Beautiful results.

Lee Ann Hawkins said...
Perfect! I echo all of the above.

Thanks for the info on how you dealt with your pleated fabric. The outfit is first class! Beautiful.
