    doing my coat (its getting cold!)

    Wow, that gives the Azalea dress a completely other look which is great! Like the version with the belt the most :) Good job!

    had a jacket AND a skirt ready :)

    hey this is nice :D i was thinking of doing the azalea too... did you use the zipper at all or is the fabric little bit elastic?

    No, I did not use zipper for this dress as the fabric is elastic

    It turned out really well. A very good variation of Azalea.

    A beginner seeking ANY tips!

    so cute! how much fabric did you need when you only used one layer? please write back on my wall! i bought 2 1/2 yards of fabric hoping to do both layers of the dress, but i dont know if its enough!

    Sorry stacey for not writting back to you sooner. I have not check burda for several days. For inner layer, it really does not require more than 1 and 1/2 yards of fabric. But for both layers, you might need less than 3 and half yards depending on the width and how you cut the fabric. I would also suggest alter the pattern a bit below the waist so that it will fot better(esp. for knit fabric).

    Hi - you have inspired me to do the Azalea without the upper skirt as well. I notice that yours is quite narrow in width - did you take it in on the side seams? Great dress, by the way!
