Very pretty dress! I love the color - it reminds me of the Barcelona dress Gigi just reviewed. Now I have to get both patterns!

Donna, this is a little off topic, but I wondered if Joyce Dunn is the proprietor of Buttons and Bolts in Tucson? If so, I know her from many moons ago, when she had a store by the same name in Massachusetts. In fact, in my stash, I still have some striped mohair-like knit fabric that I bought there when I was in high school. Now that I'm not 16 anymore (and it's not the 70s--please don't anyone work out the math here!), I don't quite know what to do with that fabric. Back on topic: your dress is really pretty--it does look fresh and cool. Enjoy!

Thank you both. Skymom, Joyce Dunn is indeed the proprieto of BnB in Tucson. I had to check the newsletter she sends to be sure! Nice lady - she will be delighted to hear you remember her.

What a great dress for Arizona. And your fabric is nice and cool looking. It is also nice to know that this pattern is so flexible in sizing.

Looks great. Might give this one a look and check Rennies instructions!

Donna, pretty pretty dress! This is one of my favorites, too, especially for hot days. The neckline is very pretty and shows off an interesting necklace.

I'm so glad to hear that Joyce Dunn ("Mrs. Dunn" to me back then!) is still running the store. I have fond memories of clothes I made from fabric I bought at her MA store, and when she moved to AZ, we were left with nothing. I'm happy for you that you get to patronize her store, but a bit envious, too!
