    @Tannie. Thank you. Pics I posted are of the sample dress. Once I figure out how to fix the fit issue, I plan to make dress on a different cloth but not jersey though. I'm still a little scared to sew stretchy fabrics.

    @Jane Riebe. I agree. The top looks cute in the picture but it doesn't seem to translate in the actual dress (although this could because I'm still new to this). Pics I posted are of a sample dress I made. I was afraid to use my final cloth on my first try. I do plan to use invisible on the final dress once I've tested the alterations on the sample dress. Hope to post final dress when I've finished it :D

    RT, don't be so hard on yourself. It's admirable that you selected a pattern like this for your first dress. I think part of what you may not like about the dress is the top. I've seen this dress made by others, and I personally don't understand why the top is designed the way it is. It is not flattering. I would recommend putting in an invisible zipper. They're amazingly easy to do. Give another dress a try.

    Hi RT,

    I think the fabric you used is too hard or too stiff. If you want to make the dress again, I advise you to use jersey. This fabric is smooth and does not stand out.
    To make the dress a little tighter, you would first have to thread and fit all the seams within the lines.
    All in all very nice that this is your first dress.

    I wish you lots of luck!

    sample dress done.. this is the very first dress I've ever made..

    it's kinda loose.. not sure if it's because of the ease or if its because I've lost a little bit of weight.. need to figure out how to alter this..
