asked for a dress with ruffles.She has selected a nice black and white fabric. This is what I made of it:
Our plan was to have a large ruffle at the bottom, and a smaller one somewhere above it. So I started pining the second ruffle to find out where to put it. But I have doubts. This makes the dress more girly, even sophisticated. Which is nice in itself, but maybe too much for Emilie... 
I guess I better wait until she comes home to make the final decision and the final seam.I also have to wait for her to finish the back: I have to check the length of the straps.
This dress has been the excuse to buy feet for the sewing machine, one for narrow hems, and one for ruffles. I ordered them after reading a post by Wendy of West 38th . Making ruffles has become fun! Making narrow hems (over 24 meters for this dress...) is much easier, but not yet perfect.
