Best in Show


Here Daisy sports her newly created "Best in Show" dress, made from the Sense and Sensibility's Girls' Regency Dress Pattern. The cozy flannel features dogs in ice skates, and the bodice is adorned with an ivory grosgrain rosette and trailing georgette and satin ribbons because, obviously, Daisy *is* Best in Show. I made this in a size 2 and it is a little large through the shoulders--actually it slips off in a most provocative fashion--so it will mostly be for next year. If I make another dress from this pattern this year I will place the front and back bodice pieces off the edge of the fabric about 3/4 of an inch to draw the shoulders closer together.
