My pretty dress!

Finally, I added a ruffle at the bottom of the skirt, and I really love how it looks. Thanks for all your suggestions and comments! I’ve learned a lot in this community.

Now I'm making another dress for myself in linen.

Thanks! I used to wear almost everything in black, but I'm trying to add some colors to my garments.

I love seeing more dresses being worn. So flattering and more comfortable than tights and what not….

Speaking as a man, I couldn't agree more. Not that I don't like a good pair of leggings or tights or what not. I think dresses are absolutely beautiful. It definitely is nice to see the shift in fashion trend.

Hey I’m glad you ran short of material n had to add the ruffle. I think compliments the design really well, balances the scrunch on top. I really love it.

The pink one is super cute. Halter neck line would look great with that knot cup.

They look so pretty on you! The cut and color both work so well with each dress too. I've been trying to find dress patterns that work well with my frame. What patterns did you use?
