I was thinking, with the extra length, to really make the look I should wear a puffy petticoat with it!<br />Sarah L, we're driving through the Northern/middle part of Wyoming from Billings to Rapid City, then on the way back stopping in Casper. In previous summers I have driven through Yellowstone and east from there, very nice!<br />Morgan, I do recommend this pattern or a similar one if you know how to sew simple things already. It's not too many pieces or too complicated. It really taught me how dresses and garments are constructed--for almost all of them, they go together pretty much the same, it seems to me now!Adventures in Dressmakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276208940528297433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-45797531750796613962010-07-24T11:09:50.584-07:002010-07-24T11:09:50.584-07:00This is wonderful, i love it!This is wonderful, i love it!Alexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08693247118826431089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-26199626025835820212010-07-24T07:31:42.887-07:002010-07-24T07:31:42.887-07:00I have made this dress, I just love it so cool to ...I have made this dress, I just love it so cool to wear in summer time.

You look absolutely adorable. The colors will serve you well into the end of summer, pair it with a small cardigan or shrug when it begins to cool off and it will still be the perfect little dress. Love the gathered skirt with the extra length and the lace trims.
