  2. I was given this pattern by a friend. You look great. It may be a little fitted for me. Would it work with more ease?

  4. I recently purchased this pattern and am excited about working with it. I have read some pretty negative reviews on PR about it, so I am happy to read your positive experience.

    I am an intermediate sewist but I am relatively new to sewing for myself. That said, my biggest question is how to choose a size that will work for me.

    I am 5'7" and weigh about 115 pounds...hourglass shape. About what size would you recommend for me in this particular pattern?

  6. Dang you have been busy! I love all of your creations. The funny thing is, all of these patterns are in my "to do" pile... I love seeing all of your versions before I make mine. You give me lots of inspiration.

  7. Wow, you look stunning in this dress. Somehow when I saw that first picture I thought of Halle Berry.
