Ahhhh absolutely adorable. That green jade colour is something else. And the embroidery is precious 🩷

[@natalieduffy387]

I ❤ this so much, the embroidery details just make it such a special dress - definitely worth the time 😊

[@caitlinoshea9047]

Oh, the embroidery really sells this dress! Very effective - love the buttons!

[@TaraDeighton]

Thanks Lovely ~ I'm really loving embroidered buttons!

[@FridayFrida]

Gorgeous fabric, I love the embroidery, looks great on you!! And thanks for making me check the sizing before I buy the pattern!

[@creamyjade]

All the embroidery details really add something special to your dress! Your ensemble is already fantastic, but if you’re looking for a hat, maybe a straw hat with a matching band in the same fabric? Have a good one, Tara 🖤

[@TaraDeighton]

Thank you my Lovely! I have a little fabric left so I'll keep that for project hat!

[@jeanlinder1310]

Adorable! The embroidery really sets off the details.

[@TaraDeighton]

[@rosalindabarrett7508]

[@TaraDeighton]

Love embroidering details on my clothes!

[@lee3171]

I did enjoy it, but I would have liked to have seen the bottom of the dress. The embroidery was lovely

[@carolyncode815]

I absolutely love this dress! It is perfect. It looks fantastic on you. I may have to try making one myself!

[@TaraDeighton]

Thank you!

[@theresatumidajski5219]

[@TaraDeighton]

[@MichelleSMV]

It definitely looks like an enjoyable project 💕

[@cherriesnhoney]

love how that turned out! the embroidery totally brings it up ...well done, tfs:)

[@TaraDeighton]

Thank you!

[@bobobun]

Looks wonderful on you Tara, love the green. That pattern did nothing for me, having seen you wearing it and looking so fab I think they need you on the envelope to show how good it can look ❤️

[@TaraDeighton]

That's so sweet of you to say Lovely ~ thank you!

[@killerkitschvintagelizzie]

The fabric is glorious!

[@TaraDeighton]

A fab vintage find!

[@sewingnibblerbits5641]

That’s brilliant 💚

[@TaraDeighton]

Thank you Lovely!

[@BenbGallaher]

The buttons are so darling-- and the pocket-- so cute!! I love this color for you🌸🌸🌸(somehow my dear husband's email shows here- I'll have to see how to change that;()

[@michellecornum5856]

(squeal) I just bought that one!!! It's good to know about the size. I agree, a hat is called for. This is cute! I don't even know what fabric to use, yet, for mine. Oh, the possibilities!

[@TaraDeighton]

I really enjoyed this make and if I were to sew it again {which I probably will!} I'd choose a viscose challis or blend, something with drape because that would work with the amount of ease! I hope you enjoy sewing this one!

[@michellecornum5856]

@@TaraDeighton Thank you for the suggestion of a drapey fabric. I have a better idea of what to go with. now, for mine.👍

[@Dizzyknitsandcurls]

I call that color mint and it suits you

[@TaraDeighton]

Fabulous ~ thank you!

[@janets2979]

Hi Tara i wondered if you had done the tutorial yet for how to do the pattern making i enjoyed your tutorial on telling us abought pattern cutting maybe i missed the follow on after that x

[@TaraDeighton]

I just filmed a blouse tutorial which you might find useful and there are more on the way!

[@Kiki_Reborn]

That’s a gorgeous fabric Tara, I think I’d call it jade green, it’s the only thing coming to mind! And it looks stunning on you ❤ Also, now that it’s made, would you still have sized down to a 14 if you’d have know how much ease there was?

[@TaraDeighton]

Thank you! Jade green is exactly the colour! I think I would size down if I were to make the dress again and am thinking I'm going to alter the pattern slightly for the next time I sew it!

[@raquelseydewitz491]

I have this pattern and started it but was disappointed with the fit. I used a shirting fabric that was too stiff so I think ill switch to a fabric with more drape. Your dress is lovely! Those embroidered accents make the dress.

[@TaraDeighton]

Thank you! I think it's quite tricky to get a good fit, especially on something that isn't meant to be fitted! I think I'd make this dress in a viscose challis next time and make the size down!

[@joellewatkins5528]

I have been eyeing this pattern, but the sizing is off. I may give it a go. I have a similar size bust.

[@TaraDeighton]

It's a lovely pattern but definitely size down 1 size I think. I hope you enjoy making it!
