    It is a beautiful pattern. I only hope that I am able to find an on-line copy service, as I don't drive. But, on behalf of the many members who are over a size 14 (US) thank you, Nehmah

    nehmah i think you can use adobe acrobat (not adobe reader) to print it tiled. i have done that with patterns from other websites and it works ;)

    Those who weare smaller sizes don't have to panic, you just have to make some little changes with the Danielle dress, to get something similar to this beautiful gown (I love it! Maybe I'll make this one for my sister).

    Unfortunately my English is too poor, to make a real "How to", but i can try to explain it shortly. When youre smaller bustet, princess seams are not necessary, so you don't have to change the bust part. When you don't want to have the puffed sleeves of the Danielle dress, take normal sleeves of another dress or blouse and change the pattern, until it fits. Make the skirt part of the Danielle dress longer. If you like, you can take out the pleats in the front an cut the pattern in the front and in the back at the darts/pleats. Then you have three parts in the front and in the back, which can be made wider or smaller, to shape the kind of siluette you like.

    Hope, this was kinda helpful...

    Its difficult for me to get to a copy shop. Couldn't you split the pattern into 2 parts whic download separately, but join together the same? It would be very useful. Just a thought.
