    Really sleek and classy (I am a bit jealous of your flat belly…)! Congratulations, both for your skills and for your good taste! And I am waiting for a smaller pattern sharing… maybe if we all will be good enough….

    Thank you all!

    And Oonaballoona is right, I draft everything I make. And put it on my blog. The problem for sharing the pattern is that I draft by hand (big sheets of paper, pencils, rulers and set squares. the works) and to my own measurements. This means my patterns are not in a standard size and it would be a HUGE effort to digitalize them.

    I’ll think about sharing another, smaller pattern in the near future though.

    What a great pattern-design!!! You should share the pattern. I saw the techical drawing on your blog. It is always difficult to take photos from black dresses… it is a pity… but the dress shape looks wonderful at you!
