Oh I'm finally doing another giveaway. It's been too long. Henri's kept me quite busy. Out of all my children, he's been the most fussy. Poor baby. I think he might have stomach aches.
I modeled this dress after the Crystalline Sky Modcloth Dress that I loved. The sleeves, the neckline, the buttondown front, the empire waist. I made the v-neck a little higher since I don't like low Vs. If I had a smaller bust I might feel differently. I then added a bow belt made of ultra suede fabric, used a blue swiss dot for the bodice and royal blue for the bottom and sleeves.
The measurements of this frock are 33 waist, 34 from shoulder to hem. The belt will cinch the dress a bit. And the waist isn't the true waist but more of an empire waist.
I'll also have a special surprise after the winner is announced!
We took these pics yesterday and the weather was almost just right for an outdoor shoot. It could have been maybe 5 or 10 degrees warmer but it was still fantastic for early March and I get cold in 70 degree weather.
As I mentioned, I have a surprise for everyone once the winner for this frock is announced. I think it will be something anyone who like this piece will enjoy!

You are so utterly talented! I came by this morning because I saw some pretty dresses on shopruche and thought, hmmm, let me check grosgrain, Kathleen might have a tutorial or tips on making a pretty dress that would cost much less. And I wouldn't have to wear polyester. So glad I came by this morning.
Looks great on you! Colors are vibrant and cute as well

Hello,
It must be a sign! I'm cycling to Amsterdam from London in May to raise funds for the NSPCC.
I'm visualising me in the dress, on my Boardman bike (which is doing quite well thank you very much - well apart from the saddle). The saddle in your picture looks far more comfortable but I don't think it'll get me much cred with the road biking crew:-)
Anyway, as an aid to my visualising skills, I do solemnly swear that if I win this dress, I promise to wear it on the Boardman when I enter Amsterdam (now there's an incentive for the universe :-D)
