Knock-Off Finally Finished!

And here it is ready on the LAST day of the knock-off contest at Pattern Review:
I can't believe how much time and re-drafting I have done on this pattern! It looked so simple when I started but you readers that have been following my blog know how many "muslins" I've sewed (some of which I like better than the final item!)   It has been a fun experience and I've learned so much about pattern drafting.

This is about all that I have sewed on for the whole month of May! I'm ready to tackle something else now.

    You have been incredibly persistent, Peggy! But the final dress was worth it - it looks great and very close to the original!

    You pretty much nailed it. AND you managed to pull off elegant and funky at the same time! I think it looks great on you :)

    Peg, it is an elegant garment. Well done! May we please see the back, some time?

    It looks great! What persistence. I would like to see the back too since I may want to emulate you and your design.
