I've since remade the dress w/o the front and back pleats - and I've used knit fabric instead of woven. Much, much better. I still won't wear it w/o a belt, but it's no longer too bulky looking.

Just bought it and now looking up what others have made. This is NOT good in the back and thank you for showing it! I wonder if others really haven't had this issue, or if they all just wear belts and cardigans. I'm curious to see how many other pictures I can find where ladies show how the back hangs. Thanks for the pictures!

My husband and I actually had lunch at 2 Bucks in Avon the day that we were looking for places to live here. I think our bill was something like $12 (including a beer for him and a root beer for me). Really good food, and such a welcome change after Chicago prices :)Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07893310601512186192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971669281200627737.post-70446187466928337512013-01-30T13:37:29.905-05:002013-01-30T13:37:29.905-05:00Hi Anna!
