Notes	This is my first dress made with Lekala pattern and I cannot be more satisfied! I love it to pieces and I plan to make more dresses with this pattern. Fit was spot on and I didn't have to make any adjustments. My only change is making the skirt shorter than pattern suggested, I like it better this way.

The fabric and pattern complement each other well. Plus, I agree with your length choice.

Thank you so much! Actually I did not, I was lucky enough to find the fabric with this ombre print on borders. Middle part of the fabric was white and I used it for the bodice, and then skirt is full on ombre. Although I'm pretty sure you can easily get this effect with dye!

Beautiful work. Did you dip dye the skirt for the ombre effect? I am starting to get into dyeing, and was just curious about your fabric and dye type/brand.
