Ok this is fabulous! I have some brown checked wool that may end up as this dress now. Thanks for the inspiration.

What a great fabric choice! I want to make one using brown check, maybe add some extra ruffles around the diamond. I love how the check pattern works so well! Well done!

Your dress caught my eye right away, very nice. Has a 40’s feel about it.

Oh it looks super! I so want to do this dress, but I can’t find the right fabric.

You have done a neat job of gathering to the diamond center. The panel is flat without pulling, and the skirt falls smoothly to the hemline. It will, of course, look great on a human. The best dressmaker’s form just does not have the smoothness of a person. Cordially, Nehmah

Looks good! I’ve been wondering if it makes a pregnant look?
