I think without them the dress looks modern and totally up to date. From a distance the fabric looks like a black and white polka dot.banclothinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18346705403696187772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-3469126086869016792011-04-10T10:29:14.055-07:002011-04-10T10:29:14.055-07:00Oh my goodness!

My grandmother made it when this pattern was new, in a gorgeous dark green polka dot fabric. I've never seen the actual pattern before, so this was a real treat. Now that I've seen it short and without the ruffle sleeves, I might go ahead and alter it.
