I agree with Tany. Fabulous.
I have a question. You create many wonderful crafts using your hands. Do you ever suffer from pain in your hands?
Thanks for your insight about smartphones!

This is a lovely dress. I also like the blue one you made recently, too. Both necklines frame your face perfectly.

This is a very pretty dress on you but I have to tell you that my first thought was that your hair looks amazing!

Your dress is very nice and I love the belt. I have a true love for belts and a sizable collection (lol) for those garments I haven't made yet. Nice job, again. Thanks for the sharing.

I love this dress and the fact that you can dress it UP or DOWN!!! You should make this in black.

I'm teaching a friend to sew (as best I can, lol) and we're using this same pattern. She picked a cotton wax print a friend brought her from Africa. Matching up the print was ugh, but I like the dress and now that I've seen yours I'm going to steal her pattern.
You look totally cute.
