I can't believe MKG has turned into Gok Wan! Mike can you come round and review my wardrobe please which consists mainly of jeans, T shirts, trekking sandals, trainers and wellies. None designer I might add. :iconbiggrin:

Oh and I like the dress too! I'm not a dress person but I like the style of it. :thumbright:

Sorry, MMM - I've decided to deal only with celebrities and/or very rich (but completely tasteless) people.

It's the only way ...

Ooo I like it, it's got a kind of 40's retro vibe going on. Where did you get the pattern?

Still not finished, had another disagreement with the sewing machine whilst quilting so it's still just tacked together waiting to be sewn properly. :oops:
Puddleduck: I made it up, I used the bottom of a wrap around dress I have for the template for the bottom bit and just messed around with the top.
