Glorious! So glad you decided to review and post here, although some of the photos aren't accessible. I sure "got" the beauty of the dress from the photos I could see. Yummy! Cute Daughter, too!

It's a beautiful dress. Don't ever let her hear you refer to her as an illuminated traffic cone. ROFL.

Beautiful! And your daughter looks like gorgeous mischief! BTW, you gave as nice a description of Sandra Betzina's/Marcy Tilton's tips on handling bias as I have ever read.

Wow wow wow. Just beautiful. Love the illuminated traffic cone analogy. Hope my daughters don't see this dress or they will be begging me to make them one. I guess this is Chapter 2? I love happy endings.

Wow and triple WOW, absolutely breathtaking, you must be so proud of your lovely daughter and YOU. For such lovely work. Great reviews on all these gorgeous dresses, you "story-telling" is so entertaining but also so informative eg bias tips. Look forward to more of your great reviews !

To Elona: I got the information about the imbalance of bias from Palmer and Pletsch's Couture The Art of Fine Sewing by Roberta Carr, page 78. For the life of me I couldn't remember where I had read about steaming the bias out of separate garment sections. When you mentioned Sandra Betzina, I went to my two SB books but it wasn't in there; I don't think I have the combination of authors book you mentioned. I wish I could give credit where it's due from my shelf, but I can't find the author among my books. That method sure works though, although I should have added in my review that it's critial to steam/stretch WITH the grain. I do remember reading that!
