Thanks! This was a first trial run and there are always things you discover you would do differently. Amyee you sew so you know how it goes! When I first "finished" it I learned that Sophie could walk right out of it because the sleeves were too long so I took them up by turning the finished edge under and hand stitched. Then my DH and I decided that she needs a bell so I sewed one onto the back at the neck so she won't try to play with it. It helps us know where she is when she's on the floor in the den. Then, I tried sewing up the back, middle to take it in and discovered it wasn't laying the way I wanted so I altered it by taking it in just a bit more and added a couple of snaps. All that and it's really finished! I loved working with the sparkly green tulle and just fell in love with the color. It was fun and I have material and tulle in different colors to make a couple more.
