I love the fabric (I agree the color combination is so pretty and unexpected with the blue background). I just bought some voile to make Pattern Runway's PB blouse. Now I'm a bit concerned since you had issues. I have to finish Anna and Lady Skater dresses then it's next in the queue and we'll see how I make out.Sharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08908776705406030872noreply@blogger.com
