I love the little pinked edges. <br /><br />I agree with Kristine's idea - add a solid band - because I'm guessing you don't have enough to cut a new back? <br /><br />Hoping to see something new soon :) (says the girl playing on the internet rather than sewing) ggMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04301526396026815132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23435904.post-59178279948124696872011-01-22T16:56:14.276-06:002011-01-22T16:56:14.276-06:00This will be such a pretty dress when you are fini...This will be such a pretty dress when you are finished so I want you to stick with it :-) And thanks for posting about your 'boo-boo', it makes me feel better for those times when I have backed myself into a 'creative opportunity'!Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02088184404975474861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23435904.post-30259709709395320302011-01-22T15:02:29.390-06:002011-01-22T15:02:29.390-06:00This fabric is so pretty, and a great choice for t...This fabric is so pretty, and a great choice for the dress (don't you love finding the perfect use for an ancient stash fabric?!). Definitely it can be fixed.

It'll cover the span between the skirt and bodice, and if you use the same color rick-rack, it will look like a belt that you totally intended. Good luck, really pretty fabric!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08126043161321731207noreply@blogger.com
