marec said... So pretty-and the back pattern is very striking. 5/26/09 5:47 PM
Ann Smith said... Beautiful dress and fabric. I passed on this pattern for the same reason you were worried about but now I think I will have to get it and use some of my linen. 5/26/09 6:13 PM

ButtonFaith said... This is too cute! I gravitate towards looser styles and this one caught my eye but I, too thought it might look too mu-mu-y! I'm so glad to see this made up! It's inspired me! 5/26/09 9:41 PM
sew2little said... Sue--What a great dress in beautiful, beautiful fabric. I wouldn't have given this pattern a second look, but your rendition inspires many looks! Marci 5/27/09 0:40 AM
2 Airedales n Me said... I just bought this pattern and thought it would be a cute summer shift. I really like how you've used a printed linen for it...has me thinking of my stash....... Thanks for the review. 5/27/09 1:14 AM

jso4fun said... Love the dress, love the fabric. And I like the sneak peak of your sewing machine and thread collection in the background, too! 5/27/09 12:06 PM
Secretsugar said... This dress came out beautifully! I like the pockets on the side like that and think they (and the length) definitely decrease the muu-muu potential of this dress. Lovely! 5/28/09 8:21 AM
Kathi R said... Wow, I never would have looked twice at this pattern.....but you really made a winner out of it. This looks like a dress that you can make again and again. Thanks for the review. 5/29/09 6:48 PM

pammieh said... I bought this pattern - thanks for the tips. I am going to do it first in a light stretchy denim as a test for some nice light wool plaid fabric (to wear with tights:)). I'm worried about the denim - love what you did!! 8/1/09 1:55 AM
dlwk said... I have just made this dress and although the processes are not difficult I think you need a lot of patience to complete the garment. I think the pockets and their placement are "tricky". I was not thrilled with my result. I think it works best on very slim younger women. 8/9/09 3:35 PM
Kay Y said... I love this new version! 8/11/09 2:31 PM
MaryLynn in Long Beach said... oooooo, Sue, I love it. Beautiful work, as usual. 8/11/09 5:14 PM
AuntieShel said... Thank you for this review. I am going to make this dress and searched for reviews. Unfortunately, I cannot see your photos, I get an error message. You answered my question about the shape, though! Was afraid it might look like a burlap bag on me, but you have inspired me to go ahead. 1/31/10 10:04 AM
