And then it struck me, this fabric became my living room curtains many years ago! So of course I love your dress and you look beautiful in it.

In the store, I was all like.."look at the pretty color and the flowers...oooh so nice! come home with me " Not once did I think about how BIG those dang flowers were....okay maybe I did, but it was in a dazed fabric store stupor....

I didn't really notice anything until you mentioned it because the colors and print are so nice. I'm sure that it's hardly noticeable with the cardigan and belt. Wear that out some more.

I've found though that as I sew, I know I can get it right (sometimes meaning several attempts) and I look for more perfection than if I bought something! I like the dress as is, anyway, but a belt would look really good too - I can imagine it :)Philippahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979470577235630724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-39926002509094528382014-08-25T16:04:53.488-03:002014-08-25T16:04:53.488-03:00I want your wearable muslins!

It IS a gorgeous print, love the large scale and the colours are perfection! I can well imagine it would have a taken A LOT of fabric in order to really showcase the print in it's glory! I can totally visual it with a cardie and a belt. Really, it's very pretty! You're very pretty! And it's all good! Love those slash pockets!
