The Thai Silk version has long sleeves like the picture but the fabric frays so much I did french seams and bias bound the centre back zip seam. This was my first time sewing french seams and have learnt that it takes a couple of millimetres off your seam allowance so your finished article is slightly smaller. Anyway, both dresses are stunning and judging by your blog and items on pattern review, this pattern would look great on you.Gaynor Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650177473299605892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-27900346751160058152010-01-07T16:00:58.917-06:002010-01-07T16:00:58.917-06:00Those patterns just look like you!
