I was picturing something tight and fitted, with a slightly higher waistline. Why I didn't just use a pattern like that is a mystery in itself, but at least I have a good winter dress to wear next year. <br /><br />And what is it about men and red dresses?! Whenever I wear one, I get loads of compliments, even if it's not the most flattering shape. There must be some primitive red dress evolutionary response, like "Red dress = ovulating female" or something.Another Sewing Scientisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02945784360747028884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2433539191806188695.post-19530989355847908362012-06-21T00:02:36.189-04:002012-06-21T00:02:36.189-04:00Thanks!

It smelled a bit "wooly" when I washed it and it has some stretch to it, so it was quite nice to handle and sew. I'm going to keep my eye open for another orphan bolt like this the next time I'm there.Another Sewing Scientisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02945784360747028884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2433539191806188695.post-73851797744015316132012-06-20T23:56:49.627-04:002012-06-20T23:56:49.627-04:00Thanks Meg!
