I usually read them in my email so don't comment but thought I should let you know that I am a fan! Your stash is so extensive and you don't let procrastination get in your way. Yes, it took a few years to get to this project but you were working on many more in the meantime (and traveling, also). This is a lovely dress (as are the others)...spot on with the fabric choice and the fit!
