Girl, you have done well! Congratulations on a lovely piece that looks fantastic on you!

I think a round-toe t-strap shoe would look great with this dress.

Amazing job. I'm drooling.

I can not believe you finished that dress. It looks really nice. You did a great job.

Don't worry about the hair! Atleast you have the body to wear that beautiful handmade creation. Very nice work.

You guys are so sweet! I was having a "bloat" day and was leary about being photographed, but you all have made me feel so good! Thanks for all of your compliments!

The dress is fabulous. It definitley has that expensive vintage look. After all that work you have to treat yourself to a pair of shoes.
Saun | Homepage | 10.19.05 - 12:48 pm | #

It fits your figure perfectly! Wonderful job. It's great inspiration to get me going :D

Lovely. A t-strap would be perfecto or an open-toed pump. I'm making mine in black or my signature color.

hi,

I love it. And the shoe you suggested is right on. Its the type of shoe I bought to go with my dress. I'm only half way and hope to be finished soon.

It's so gorgeous, I can't stop coming back to gaze at it
Megan | Homepage | 10.21.05 - 7:52 pm | #

I like the changes you made to the neckline. It really made for a more flattering dress.

Good photo too!
Kimberly | Homepage | 10.21.05 - 8:17 pm | #

That is just awesome! I've been anxious to see it done, and it's amazing!
Jen | Homepage | 10.22.05 - 10:36 am | #

WOW! I am UNDONE!

Your dress looks fabulous! I say go for the T-strap, some pearls and a totally retro bag a la 1920's.

Then go out on the town and FLOSS!

Absolutely beautiful. Keep up the wonderful work!

Ok, you think 'crochet dress' all kinds of things come to mind, but THAT is a dress! Came here from Catena Expressions...like your blog..

That is the most gorgeous dress I have ever seen. It fits you perfectly, and it is so flattering! Nice work.

Absolutely fantastic! Beautiful and it looks so good on you. I've been following the progress because it brought back some memories of the crocheted wedding dress I made in 1999 (pictures in my photo album http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ha...1999/my_photos) . Thanks for the memories! Be blessed.

It's really beautiful! Such wonderful work you do! I just found your blog.
Michelle | Homepage | 11.01.05 - 7:36 pm | #

Now, did you have to line this dress?
Amie | Homepage | 11.07.05 - 10:14 pm | #

Didn't have to... I have a beautiful slip that I'm wearing underneath.
Erica B. | Homepage | 11.07.05 - 10:29 pm | #

Exquisite! What yarn/thread did you use? I understand Golf yarm (as specified in the original pattern) is no longer available.
Terry | 11.13.05 - 8:05 pm | #

such a stunning piece. I think you should publish a book with all your patterns and ideas... i'd love to buy it :D
pixi | Homepage | 11.23.05 - 11:03 pm | #

Wow ... that is beautiful. I looked at the picture in the the Lily Chin pattern and you did a much better job than the crocheter AND the model! That's awesome!!
Lesley Ann | 03.05.06 - 10:38 pm | #

Wow!! I can see a chunky heeled espadrille with laces up your lower leg
Jen | 03.05.06 - 10:52 pm | #

WOW. Thats all I can say. Really, that is amazing. Congrats!

Erica... That dress is so gorgeous! You did a wonderful, wonderful job. And just think how much *buying* a dress that quality would have been. Forget plain shoes, you could get Jimmy Choos
Katherine | Homepage | 03.06.06 - 6:56 pm | #

Absolutely Georgeous.... A plain, simple, slip on shoe in the off white would be perfect. Let the dress stand on its own!!!! Super job I would like to see it with you standing tall..... strut your stuff!!!!
Deb Wolf | 03.08.06 - 8:19 am | #

Thanks a lot to you ALL!
Erica B. | Homepage | 03.09.06 - 12:12 am | #

Wow, what a gorgeous dress. I think it looks better in that color than the original.

You look simply beautiful.
TraciSue | 03.13.06 - 9:48 am | #

No, I think that a plain heeled pump in a nude color would look so chic!
What a beautiful job you did on this dress. Fits you to a tee!
Arlene Bigelow | 05.09.06 - 7:38 pm | #

That dress is abolsutely amazing. It looks fabulous on you. Great job!
Wanda | Homepage | 06.18.06 - 6:10 pm | #

Drop. Dead. Gorgeous.

When I get my jaw off the floor, I'm gonna go find my grandma's crochet hooks and start practicing...

yeah, right.

Thanks for sharing such a lovely thing with us.
