I'm using a cotton blend blue print fabric I've been saving for a long time - it drapes like rayon and I think I'm going to love this pattern with it. I'm still wondering what I'm going to do with that neckline. I'm thinking about doing a short boat neck instead..... Thanks!

The sugar slip is the only one I've found (after sewing up a good 8 pieces) that is smaller- fit wise.
