How much longer did you make yours so I can get an idea of how much extra fabric I need to buy. I made the original version and luved it so much.

Well Andrea, it’s been a while, but I think it was about 24" longer than the original. You’ll need about 2 1/2 yards of fabric (45" or 60" wide). I’d love to see a pic of your Bambi/long. Much success!

Very romantic and the longer version is definitely more to my taste!

I have the pattern and fabric for this. Seeing your creation is so exciting! I can’t wait to make my own! Did you have any problems with the pattern?

No problems except when I had to tape it together. lol
Really it was an easy pattern. I just recommend that you line the dress. I self lined the bodice and added acetate lining in the skirt. Happy sewing to you.
I’d love to see your pic when you’re done.
