I have a tendency to add patterns to my "to buy" list after you make them (maybe because we have such a similar body type, so if it looks fab on you it probably will on me too?) - and I was sooo picturing my own version of this cute kimono look. Either way, I love your version! The fabric so pretty, hopefully it holds up for a whileJanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10733768934905300849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198660701949089916.post-72293578254426925452010-07-27T13:17:42.528-04:002010-07-27T13:17:42.528-04:00The dress is super cute, and great job finding a d...The dress is super cute, and great job finding a design for such a large print.
