Very cute! I can't wait to show my mom this! I have this pattern in my stash...hmmm lol. I have some shoes just like those, but I tie them around the bottom of the shoe to make and X across the top of my foot! LOL

But I really LOVE the shoes! :oD

Hi Erica, you talk about always doing a 1" full bust adjustment. I have never done a FBA and I am wondering if my clothing would fit better if I did? Can you direct me to the instructions you use to create that adjustment? What about if a pattern does not have a dart at all and you need to put one in? Thanks for any suggestions or direction!!

This is a very nice dress. I LOVE the fabric. Congratulations on completing the SWAP! I have thought about participating but never committed. I always find inspiration here!

Kim, you need to get you a copy of "Fit For Real People".

I agree with the SAHM lifestyle and the need to look nice. I was struck by one thing you said... You mean you actually find time to go to the movies and have date nights??? (smile)

Wow! I am so glad to see the dress on a lady with a real figure. I was a little nervous to try it myself--until now.

Thanks for all your notes on this pattern (and the rocking jeans pattern from McCalls). Your comments certainly help intimitated seamstresses!
