I will now actually buy this pattern and then find the perfect material! Nice work and thanks for taking the time to post. Sue 9/24/09 10:12 PM

kkkkaty said... no, it isn't lined, but the lace is so busy that there really isn't any show through. I am very nervous myself about sewing with anything stretch, but this went pretty well, lots of good tips in the instructions 9/24/09 10:50 PM
