The fabric of the dress had stretch in it already, and so taking out the unstretchy bit was enough to make it fit.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09913795373618902575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098393915488355682.post-20643197411977925302011-05-16T23:09:41.349-07:002011-05-16T23:09:41.349-07:00Thank you for your comment!

I definitely plan to use that lovely Vogue pattern, but for that occasion I decided to make-do with what I had!<br />With regard to the Cape to Cape walk, there is some good info on the friends of the cape to cape web site (I think it is called something like that), with maps and good advice for the best time of year. We have a guide book too, the one written by Jane Scott; it is excellent. Just google, cape to cape. Let me know if you decide to come over this way!Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156106727490224625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098393915488355682.post-10191888661881576702011-05-16T14:15:26.306-07:002011-05-16T14:15:26.306-07:00Now that I can actually comment on Blogger things ...Now that I can actually comment on Blogger things again... lovely blouse!

I was just telling someone recently that I've been too timid to try chiffon -- might need to give it a go. How cool that your DD2 drafted her own pattern and made the skirt herself! You must be quite an inspiration to her!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11994553975406806627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098393915488355682.post-83509453380889617442011-05-06T19:19:14.096-07:002011-05-06T19:19:14.096-07:00Great blouse!
