I made another version of Ottobre 6-2011-3. This one is a dress. There were quite a few changes for this one. It started out as a 92, but I have added 9 inches in length (originally 12, but I lopped 3 off despite the nerdlet wanting to keep them), 3 inches to the sleeve length, and 1 inch to the sleeve width and to the front and back). This knit is from a quilting store that had it clearanced and it is quite thick so I didn't line it.
I don't know if you can tell, but the nerdlet loves it. She says it is super comfortable; and she was only supposed to try it on, but now she is refusing to take it off.
Today, I am especially grateful for kids that are grateful that I sew for them. All three of the girls love when I make them something and I only hope that they don't outgrow that any time soon. Their enthusiasm for the clothing I make really fills me with happiness.
