Description
I made this gown for a local girl to wear in an upcoming pageant. I had a lot of trouble with the ruched overlay on the bodice-I think it was the assymetry of it all. Finally I tripled the amount of match points before I slashed the pattern, and it worked!
Material Notes
organza, stretch net with metallic threads and satin for lining and underlining

Yes, it does. The outer two layers are organza, under that is a layer of tulle for softness, under that one of green lining to help the color, and under that a layer of lining with gathered netting attatched to it, so six layers of skirt. Whew!

Before I read your post I thought this was for a barbie doll. The dress and the model are thumbs up.

That is so funny-I never thought of it. It’s too bad in a way…much less yardage to wrestle around with.
and thanks
