Description
My attempt at the Melissa dress! I had a lot of problems getting all the pieces to fit right, but at least I got a lot of practice with using a seam ripper! I’m really happy with how it came out in the end.

I love it! I keep seeing that fabric in stores wishing I had a reason to buy it. It’s excellent with the contrast waist.

Oh, I love that fabric! And you did a great job with the dress itself (sorry it caused you so much trouble) – the dress looks very well made and the fit is amazing!

Wow. This is lovely. Very flattering. Well co-ordinated – it didn’t occur to me to have a contrast waist band. It looks so great!

Very pretty. And you should be happy how it came out because this is some good work. I’m not sure if it’s the color or the work…just kidding the color is beautiful and the dress is gorgeous. Great job.
