I'm such a tease
October 01, 2007
A sneak peek at my finished Juliet. My photographer (aka Fatty) is out of town, so a full-on modeling shot will have to wait. But let me say this, I am in love! The buttons were the icing on the cake, perfect in every way. The fabric store only had three - just what I needed. Isn't it great when something just comes together like that?
I can't wait for the full 'reveal' - it looks beautiful. Also 'wow' to Jane for her brilliant T-shirt design and thanks for the tips - off to redesign Minx's wardrobe now!!!

Your Juliet has been on my mind ever since you posted the pattern... I think after I see yours I'll just HAVE to make one of my own.
Yours looks GORGEOUS from what we can see :))))))
