What a nice "icy" color! Have you thought of putting snaps under the buttons? I do that a lot:-)

Thanks everyone! I don't know why I didn't think of snaps! And there is still time to do it. :D I think I might like that better than hooks & eyes.

Very flattering to your skin color and red hair! You are brave to sew with satin. Did you have to make any alterations for the fit?

Thanks, slanden99 & DeborahMy. Nope, no fit alterations on this pattern. I'm average height (5'-5-1/2"), my proportions are fairly average, and the pattern seems to allow enough ease for the inch or two I might be off here or there compared to the pattern. The next time I make it I might try a swayback adjustment, since there is a little more fabric in the back than necessary. But I'm so used to that in RTW that I wouldn't even notice it if not for people talking about swayback adjustments here.
