Elemenopeo said... I think it looks nice. The photo is in poor lighting so the dress sort of jumps to the forefront of the photo. I bet it looks better in natural daylight. 9/21/06 2:11 PM
Sewliz said... I like it, and your skirt deifinitely does not look boxy. Your outfit is wonderful, cute fabric and what a nice fit! 9/21/06 6:40 PM
Sherril Miller said... It's a very nice outfit, and the fit looks good. I think the black stockings are too dark for such a pretty spring fabric though. Isn't it great that you can trust KwikSew instructions? 9/21/06 7:09 PM
CarolynGM said... Well done, MelC. Your fabric is lovely. 9/21/06 7:32 PM
Rhonda in Montreal said... As soon as I saw the picture, I knew it was a church "dress"--it looked like one piece. I think you look like a sweet, Christian gal--not like a "box"!!

Mini said... Your outfit turned out really well. This is an excellent pattern for drapey fabrics like rayon or tencel too. I have used this pattern and thought it was one of Kwik Sew's best. The gored skirt is especially well-drafted, with lots of "swirl". I think you will like the collarless blouse-it's very quick to make, and of course it's easier than the collar version. 9/21/06 9:56 PM
wvsher said... Great job, and I think it looks very nice on you in the photo. I also have a KS pattern (For a man's shirt) that has collar instructions that are confusing to me. (But then, I have yet to successfully make a collar.) Glad you figured yours out -- I really messed mine up. :) 9/22/06 10:26 AM

Winifred said... This looks lovely on you. I have this pattern and will make it up minus the collar as they dont look good on me - my necks too short. Winifred 9/22/06 4:26 PM
Kath in ON said... I think it looks very pretty. I agree with Sherril about the dark stockings - my rule is that your shoes should always be darker than your pantyhose. 9/22/06 10:09 PM
