This is me trying it on for fit.. ignore the fizzy animal slippers and the mess on my head lol
Yeah there are a pile of clothes in the background.. Ignore them! I was trying things on lol!
Back view.. I could have pulled that elastic in a bit more!
Finished dress view in front of the National Harbor… what a beautiful carousel in the background that I took my Goddaughter to visit last year.. It was a lil gusty out there on Saturday lol
Here is the finished back view! Glad I put sleeves on this dress it was very windy and cold on the boat!
And they had the AC on full blast on in the enclosed portion! All of that provided for a bit of Marilyn Monroe action happening lol
Close-Up Selfie! I had a fabulous time with my date!

Pattern alterations
or any design changes you made: No alterations, but since I have a small
back, I should had did more adjustment with the elastic back. I cut a 10 on the
top and a 14 on the bottom, which was more than generous! I should have
extended the length just one inch since it’s a flowy dress the wind assist with
a little Marilyn Monroe Action!
