You've made a great dress! I totally understand what you mean about the directions because mine is still laying on the cutting table waiting to be completed...maybe I should move it to the top of the pile now that you've made such a great version!

This looks nice on you. I just purchased the McCall's 6279, which is similar. Hope mine look as nice.

Michelle, that is such a great dress. Very nicely done. I like the idea of the cotton sateen...very crisp!

Yikes! I absolutely LOVE your version of this dress. I already have the fabric, but was nervous that it would be time consuming.

I love this dress and have the pattern. So your feedback has been extremely helpful to me. I chose this over the McCalls as I did not want it as fitted as that one. You look great in it.
