I would never have thought of using that pattern to make such a fun, casual dress. Nice job!

This is GORGEOUS! And I LOVE your idea of a PINK GINGHAM wedding dress. :o) You can do like I did and tell your husband you expect to get married AGAIN in 20 years or so, so you can wear a different dress. (I threatened, but 20 rolled around last year, and I didn't actually do it -- ha!)

It is a very lovely dress and I think it was quite inspired to take this pattern and make it into such a chic summer dress!!! Everything about this dress and its perfect fit is just gorgeous. I hope your confidence grows to match your obvious skills!
