Shameless AW here

You guys!  Look what I made!!  There are a couple of things that I will probably go back and adjust before I wear it in public, but all in all, I'm pretty dang impressed with myself!

Please ignore the fact that I am standing on DS's step stool.  My full length mirror is the devil (I'm pretty sure it adds 20 lbs), and the lighting is best in the bathroom mirror so I had to stand on something.





I can't wait to see it with my red heels! And I have enough fabric left over to do a clutch to go with it in red.  I'm not sure if I will, but I'm thinking about it.

You MADE that? It's gorgeous! I love it.

[starrieskies]

thanks, margarita! I was really nervous because I have only done quilts and minor repairs in recent history. This was my very first dress!

[gault]

WOW!!

It looks great! And you have a great figure.

[cuddlyevil]

That's adorable! You look lovely in it

[starrieskies]

I kind of feel like I need a black wide brimmed hat with a matching red band, ala "Pretty Woman", to go with it. LOL

[margarita]

It's really beautiful, starries, and you look great in it.

That is so adorable!

I agree with gault. You look fantastic and I LOVE the dress!

There is a lot of talent around these parts.

[starrieskies]

The dress style is surprisingly forgiving. It kind of minimizes my hips, which is extremely helpful.

[partiallysunny]

I would compliment the dress, but I can't stop staring at your figure. You look fantastic!

[tiramisu]

You look awesome! And so does the dress, but your figure, wow!

I love it Starries!!!!!! It is so flattering on you! You did a marvelous job. Your princess seams on the bodice look so nice and smooth!

[starrieskies]

LOL I had to go through and "like" every single comment on this thread because I've been feeling really self conscious lately. You guys are great for my ego!

[Deleted]

very cute!

[Muddled]

I love it!! When can I expect mine?
