Laurel
I finished my Laurel dress! Hooray! I made few simple alterations, adding some darts in the front, lowering the neckline and embellishing with a pleated bib. Having such an easy pattern allowed me to flex my creativity a bit in making the dress exactly what I wanted. I’m already brainstorming my next dress. I think I’d like to try it in knit or something a little more flowy. With it’s light weight and soft colors, this dress will be perfect for spring and summer.

I love that you said holy cats. I’m totally stealing this phrase. Also thank you!
Suuuuper good dress.
Whoa! I just looked at the site and it’s a whole different dress. The pleating looks amazing!
Just beautiful!! I love how you made the design your own… Wow!
Beautiful dress! The pattern is so lovely and those details are so beautiful. Well done!
OK so jealous of your skills. I’d die to be able to make and alter my clothes. This dress looks great.
Amazing! It’s perfectly suited to you, both in fit and style. I love your changes. So well executed.
So cute! I love the bib you added – what a sweet touch!
Just seen this on the Coletterie blog. Gah, it’s just so cute! Love your glasses too.
