It looks great on you. <br />I have some of the same fabric, and have cut out an Emery dress - I'm a little nervous to see how my sewing machine takes to it, fingers crossed. <br />Did your fabric say "Anne Taylor" on the selvedge? I found some Anne Taylor pencil skirts made from it online (e.g. this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SK00220-NWT-ANN-TAYLOR-LOFT-Women-Polyester-Pencil-Skirt-Yellow-Pink-Floral-8P/191487563709?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D27674%26meid%3Da43f84e66b1d4d35b59f347eb72d25b6%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D251649928004&rt=nc) - must be a previous season, as they're online on eBay, not the website.suzyhttp://www.floatingworldviews.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611323651828889930.post-78781850657827038362015-01-23T01:18:30.879+11:002015-01-23T01:18:30.879+11:00Absolutely gorgeous.

Its so weird huh how it sewed up. I thought it would sew up so easily given how stable it is, but my sewing machine hated it. Great job and matching the two patterns too - a perfect summer dress!Emmahttp://ernestflagg.blogspot.com.au/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611323651828889930.post-12165823436962228362015-01-20T07:36:16.964+11:002015-01-20T07:36:16.964+11:00Lovely dress.
