Your fabrics are gorgeous. I'm eager to see how you get on with the New Look top pattern because I've got that one and seeing it here has just reminded me that I really want to make it. I think if you do decide on the ruffle dress it will definitely look super cute!Eugeniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07584571701550775408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-30739909465825840902010-03-06T07:45:07.411-06:002010-03-06T07:45:07.411-06:00I love your fabric choices.I love your fabric choices.Elarayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06487492651398001387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-47909838620128117902010-03-06T07:31:57.808-06:002010-03-06T07:31:57.808-06:00Loving your color scheme and can't wait to see...Loving your color scheme and can't wait to see the finished garments.

If i...Anything you make Amanda would be beautiful. If it were me I would go with something less difficult to construct with less chance of it becoming a wadder. Unfortunately I tend not to take too many risks with my sewing but as I said, you sew so beautifully that I am sure you would make it a success. Given that, which would I pick if I had to buy it? Absolutely that pink tiered dress. Good luck.

They call it a dress, but really it is a skirt attached to a plain tank, and so it might work, just in case you are looking around for another pattern option.
