Wow, these are all such beautiful dresses. i have been eagerly waiting to see what yours looked like. The fabric is scrumptious.
Thanks Kaitlyn. I’m a sucker for a red floral print!
They all look great! Well done. 🙂
They do ☺
Such a lovely bunch of dresses! I really like the fabric you picked for yours (and was secretly hoping to see you wearing it at the NYLon meet-up).
Thanks Daniela, it was lovely to see you there! I didn’t want to wear the dress before I had revealed it on the blog! 🙂
That dress is so wonderful, floral is so trendy right now. What a perfect fabric selection for a perfect dress pattern.
Thank you. I love the fabric!
Hi, just stumbled upon your blog via Sewing After Dark. This dress was going to be my next project so hurrah! Will definitely be using your guide. Thank you!
Glad you found the information! Good luck. If you have any questions feel free to comment on the appropriate post. The sewalong is over but obviously I am still able to help!
How gorgeous is that? A perfect wear-with-everything dress, just right in that lovely floral fabric, too. One day I will go back through your sew along and make one myself. Yip!
Here is my dress! Thank you for the advice, it was really easy to sew together with you!
new handmade accessoirs included 🙂

Dear Louise,
I discovered your blog and was so so excited! I admire you for creating it and keeping it for such a long time and for helping us all who are interested in sewing.
I need help in relation to the Brigitte Dress:
– I have printed the pattern but cannot understand how much the pages overlap and how much I should hide one page under the other. How do you estimate that?
– I have read in your post that the dress on the original magazine picture is not actually the Brigitte Dress. I would love to make that dress. Is there a similar pattern?
Thank you so much for your help!
Best,
Kyproula
