The fabric and color choice are so pretty for your skin tone :D. I especially love the look of the wide ribbon belt and the cross over top is great! Wonderful job!

A very pretty version of Anda. I like it with the ribbon belt – it gives it a “Regency” feel. The sunflowers are beautiful too.

It’s very pretty, fits you well and the colour combination is great. Unfortunately it’s also close to what I’m working on for my Anda, not exactly alike though. I even got a striped fabric!

Wow – I immensely enjoyed your how-to and I admire your new Anda. I especially like the one with the obi belt. Excellent job!

It’s a very pretty dress. It looks lovely on you. Either belt looks good. :-)

Really nice variation on the anda. I like both belts, too.
