Congratulations Cherry_Bombb on your store! I also have it bookmarked and can't wait to go shopping lol lol lol

Cherry_Bombb! Love both outfits, but please don't sell any skirts yet - I'm determined to make my own jumper/suspender skirt before the Summer and I know I'll get lazy and end up buying one! lol
I've got to get the fabric today, otherwise it'll never get made... I'll post some pics

It is my version of this:-

Absolutely gorgeous!! I am so incredibly jealous

If I got a free trip to London out of it, I would do it!

Pink! I am in love with this dress! You wear it so well and the white is just the perfect accent! Well done!

Got this 40s fabric (I think) from eBay a long long time ago. The flowers are painted (printed) on to a near photo neutral grey. Man do they pop!

Sadly I didnt have enough for a dress, but I do have enough left over to make cuffs and a collar for a blouse for it. I think Ill make the blouse in white

Lady Day, I've said it before and I'll say it again--your sewing sassiness is wonderful! And I love this print in particular. Did you use the same pattern for this as you did the pretty poppy skirt? If so, what is it? Because I love the front pleat. But I have a sneaking suspicion you just whipped it up.

I cannot wait to see this one in person LD--stunning work as always! I wish you had your own dress line for retail--I'd buy everything you make.

I second this

This is the skirt bottom from the pattern I used on the blue seersucker dress. Alas, the skirt is too large (a few inches) so Ill have to take it in, and that is a larger pain than making it from the start because of all the adjusting needed. I dont want to add more darts, that will effect the drape, sigh. So right now, its hanging in m closet.

People keep telling me that they want me to make dresses for them, but when I tell them how much a hand made dress by me will cost (not including the fabric they have to pay for) most cant comprehend that I may want to make more than min. wadge on something lol. Nothing outragous, but if Im spending 10-12 hours on something....

So no dresses being made by me. For now...

Pink, I'd like to order this dress! The facric and colors are perfect. I'm in love!

Faryl Robin Dress #2. I had to make all these dresses to go with the Faryl Robin shoes (since I didn't have much).

Close up of the fabric:

The pattern:

There's one more dress in the works. I'm having trouble with the pockets. Maybe I'll post in the FAQs.

Here is my attempt to find a cute modern pattern that doesn't take 4-5yrds of fabric and doesn't need a girdle and petticoat when it's nearly 100F. It's very similar to a vintage pattern I have, but you can tell it's not quite right. I think I'll have to just get used to wearing my girdle in the heat.

Zing! went the strings of my heart...

 

[cherry lips]

Simply *heavenly*

I made this dress last week from a 1946 pattern :

 

[cherry lips]

GG you look stunning! I love how your hair matches the dress and the shadow of the palm leaves against your legs. Soon I'll be nick-named The Pallor Pervert of FL I'm afraid lol

You and me both Cherry!

Oh girls, you are making me blush, thank you all for the lovely compliments. It means a lot to get such positive feedback. The fabric's I've used for all these dresses I bought on my trips back home to Australia. And to keep on the Hawaiian theme this is a two piece set I made a while back and just dug it out today after the move.

I love this color. You look fab.

 

[cherry lips]

You and me both Cherry!

Then we'll have to have a dual at sun rise. Or even better, be like the silly suitors in Mr. Skeffington who never give up!

 

[Pink Dahlia]

Would you believe I started this in December? I got into a HUGE fight with the pockets so it just sat there. Anyway, finally done:

Pattern:

Please pay no attention to my head in this pic. I like it even though the bust is too big. The pattern is on size too big for me and I don't know how to alter so I just made the seams 5/8 instead of 1/2.

 

[cherry lips]

:eusa_clap Pink, we must have similar taste, because I want to steal all your dresses!
