I purchased ( from fabric.com) Cotton Blend Diamond Lace White
CN-108...




and I was just perusing thru the latest Nordie's catalog to find this....



now Im not 100% in love with the dress from Nordstrom but thats pretty much the general idea of what I want to do with my fabric....I was thinking a satin or cotton even slip inder and then either a short ( maybe 2 inches above knee) or very long maxi type shift dress over it.....

pattern suggestions??? moreover, any suggestions or hints on how to sew with that eyelet fabric?? Ive never worked with it before

I really like this dress AND your idea! I think that if you find a slip pattern and a tunic that you like you can make both and wear the one over the other. Sorry I don't have any pictures for you, I'm just thinking out loud. I am sure that some one will come along and post some for you. I will be watching closely! Good luck!
