However, I'm glad that they re-release the ones they do. I love your pattern choices they are so lovely.

Of the ones that you highlighted here, I fell especially hard for the coats/coat dresses with the dramatic lapels. Those are just stunning!<br /><br />xoxo ♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3482142516265173452.post-83691832379276097572016-08-11T19:31:41.907-06:002016-08-11T19:31:41.907-06:00Rayon is so nice to wear but is certainly tricky a...Rayon is so nice to wear but is certainly tricky and most often just plain irritating to work with! Sounds heartbreaking! We've all has "those" projects.

I was so sad. Tried to salvage the bodice but it just wasn't happening. Its still in my pile of fabrics somewhere. How does anyone work with that fabric I don't know!KittyMeowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08234505506035303913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3482142516265173452.post-44939770531909652392016-08-08T18:12:27.510-06:002016-08-08T18:12:27.510-06:00It looks so intricate, I'll have to try it som...It looks so intricate, I'll have to try it someday!

I have considered sending some of my originals off to Alexandra at EvaDress for her to multi-size and immortalise for all of us!
