Your dress is absolutely fantastic!!! You make such great color and design choices... have you training in art and clothing design? Or just a great natural talent blended with experience?

The dress is great. The fabric colour, with the orange trim and the style. The whole effect is terrific!

Very nice - love your neckline fix. I have done this and wondered if it was the "right" thing to do - so you affirmed for me it is ok! I love the orange contrasts.

What a great dress! It not only looks great on you, but after looking at the line drawings, it looks very comfortable, too.

I'm really loving all these cute dresses you are making. The print and contrast on this one are so striking. TYour new dresses are making me unhappy with my summer capri set uniform. Lol!

Great job. I thought it had kimono sleeves as part of the pattern before reading your review. You made this dress your own!

I really like your dress, it looks great on you. I have this pattern so it's great to see it made up. I like the fabric too.

So cute. And that was a wonderful "design feature" adding the neck pleats :-) The orange trim gives even more PoP to the outfit...Orange is one of my favorite colors.

Your dress turned out beautifully, even though you had all the problems. Your techniques to save thee dress were mighty clever. That fabric is adorable. Great review, too.
