It's a great shape (or I think so anyway!) and there are some nice details to work on.

I haven't heard about this pattern yet, so you are really tempting me to get the pattern as well! I also have never inserted an exposed zipper, but seeing yours - you convinced to give it a try as well! Actually I have a very similar fabric in my stash :) It has the same colors and only the roses are a smaller.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13008177057730600352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492251489122148012.post-4084955399188606882014-02-16T21:12:54.515+00:002014-02-16T21:12:54.515+00:00Gorgeous!!

Good save though- you'd never know. I like the waist band detail and the pleats in the skirt they give your dress a lovely shape.
