Love, Love, Loved this piece. I just made the JJ blouse into a western dress. I made the ruffles longer and placed them closer together. Oh, also added a ruffle to the collar.

The ruffles look great, as the whole dress does! Looks really professional!

I never would have thought to make this into a dress or add those buttons. They really do add a Western look. This is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! Great job. :)

Love this dress, you did a great job. i really like what you did with the ruffles, moving them together on the front piece and adding one at the collar, great details. Love the buttons too!
