I just sort of stumbled over your blog and wow....fantastic to 'meet' a girl with the same taste in clothing as myself :-) In fact I've used this very pattern - If you want, you can take a look here:<br /><br />http://groovybabyandmama.blogspot.com/2010/11/oh-groovy-babyyeah.html<br /><br />Peace and love,<br /><br />Trine from DenmarkTrine (groovy baby)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16082465303228306564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679403543398128249.post-8750170003260276952010-10-05T23:03:08.321-07:002010-10-05T23:03:08.321-07:00I don't think the distortion is too bad, the f...I don't think the distortion is too bad, the fabric pull is likely causeing part of the enhancement.<br /><br />COngrats on the 34 :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03332529677283018647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679403543398128249.post-79894421285049437432010-10-04T19:28:21.897-07:002010-10-04T19:28:21.897-07:00@Veronica Darling: Thanks!

I did a post about the Beautiful Blogger Award ; - )<br />@Myra: I wanted to try that Rayon/Lycra blend (the one that's $12.00 a yard), but I thought it might be too much like the jet set. Thanks for the info on that-- now I know it works well. The Jet Set, though, ugh. I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking its crappy.<br />@Georgina Ragazza: I hear you re: the small ball of tears. It's hard not to break down when you spend so much time on something and it ends up bad. Glad that I can be inspirational. I do try to stay positive, but it's hard sometimes.Astridhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03936699285314292172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679403543398128249.post-30273089215307122262010-10-03T08:44:40.518-07:002010-10-03T08:44:40.518-07:00I totally admire your dedication!

Every time I read your blog, I think - get on with it.

I think the only reason JoAnn sells it, is because it's CHEAP! I think your dress is very cute and would have felt awesome to you made from Rayon Lycra (no polyester) in a 6-8 oz weight. This is a beautiful knit fabric and sews extremely well, very soft touch too! JoAnn sells it, but it's $12.00 a yard. You can find it every where online, but you have to make sure it's a 6-8 oz weight, because some places sell it cheap because it's thin. (still works, just kind of see-thru).Myrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359520837946001668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1679403543398128249.post-90033070058141303022010-10-03T04:24:55.929-07:002010-10-03T04:24:55.929-07:00Hehe, cute dress and I love your necklace!
