cecelia said... This dress makes me wish I lived in a different era, it's so lovely and feminine. I know what you mean about discovering mistakes after we've sewn them! 10/19/06 6:29 AM
dreamdesigner said... Fabulous. DD that's a big fan of POTC would love it.
I know what you mean about all the parts looking the same, and sewing the wrong ends/sides together. Been there, done that. Now, I keep the pattern pinned to the fabric up until I'm ready to sew a seam.
PS who will be wearing this? 10/20/06 11:51 AM
