I'm getting excited about going and its so inspiring to know the team effort it takes to get us there. <br /><br />I like this dress you are working on. The fabric is really pretty and I enjoy reading about your fit "trials" as I seem to always be battling that. I guess that's why so many people like to sew for kids - little to no fitting!Nancy Winninghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291320098379550586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-32662334740152271442011-05-09T01:17:19.034-04:002011-05-09T01:17:19.034-04:00Your fabric is very pretty.

I almost used this pattern to make the 7 costumes I made last summer. Now I'm so glad they picked a different pattern.Sherrilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03682899485401222209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-26792901143518643132011-05-08T21:28:41.690-04:002011-05-08T21:28:41.690-04:00Even though this dress construction has been a PIT...Even though this dress construction has been a PITA, it looks as though the top has turned out well. The black band looks good. I am holding out deciding if it is worth it to try until you are finished, to see how satisfied you are overall. Can't wait to see it on you.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15378489018825744806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-58059387994955642692011-05-08T21:13:50.832-04:002011-05-08T21:13:50.832-04:00It's looking nice - I like your fabric choices...It's looking nice - I like your fabric choices.<br />The "sway front" alteration looks like a bust dart from CF that could be rotated into the existing princess seams - sort of a different take on an FBA.Alexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647360160775311798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-82168931957678934462011-05-08T20:17:52.337-04:002011-05-08T20:17:52.337-04:00Happy Mother's Day!Happy Mother's Day!a little sewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18086285440873869055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-59685073320102244672011-05-08T20:17:23.851-04:002011-05-08T20:17:23.851-04:00Sorry it has been such a hideous experience, but i...Sorry it has been such a hideous experience, but it sure does look good.

I like the black contrast band.<br /><br />For the record, I've made a few 2-toned dresses, with a different colored bodice, and the jacket to match the bottom of the dress, and I really enjoy them. Just a comment, because you seemed to like the contrast on your muslin.Marjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950085029835332900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-79544688550793748042011-05-08T17:07:36.285-04:002011-05-08T17:07:36.285-04:00Your dress is coming along nicely!
