I found this fabric at work (Jo-Ann’s) in the clearance section. At first i thought it wasn’t so pretty, but when i realized that it had koi fish on it, i had to have it! No zipper since it’s a knit; i actually placed the back pieces on the fold, taking in about 2 inches. I also added a short sleeve. The points on the diamond aren’t perfect, but i loved the way it turned out.
