CurlyCrafter said... Your dress came out so great! And ya know - my version is actually growing on me and I've worn it a couple of times since I made it. I think you are right about the knit affecting the drape and maybe that's why I don't love-love mine. After seeing your cute version I might just have to try this dress one more time is a thinner, more slinky knit just to see how it works. Great job! 7/16/08 7:10 PM

I have his pattern and must get around to sewing it...I was thinking even as modifying it to a top..do you think the drape is too low for this?

katlew03 said... I love this dress. I think I will make one for DD#1. I just found out she does not have any dresses she can wear and this one would be nice now and as an early pregnancy dress if that occurs. I checked out Kathi's version and really like both yours and hers. I have this pattern and keep eyeing it when I go through my extensive stash. Thanks for a great review. 9/14/08 9:48 PM
