You did a wonderful job on the dresses. They fit so nicely. Glad you managed to get them done for the contest.

I really like the tunic with the flutter sleeves - really cute. Dress looks nice, too.

Very cute! I love how different the two are. And I have to say I adore the top! I don't think the fabric is too stiff, it just gives it a more crisp look!

I like the way you've used one pattern to make two such different garments. Loved them both. I've just started making this dress and your review is very helpful and encouraging.
