Hey April!! Just wondering how many pieces of paper does the medium pattern print on? I am thinking about purchasing! Also can you use an elastic casing rather than shir? My machine sucks as shirring! -love to hear from you----www.oddsofpink.blogspot.com - Lauren

Lauren - The pattern sizes are all nested together and print as one, 25 pages. You can easily add an elastic casing in place of the shirring... I know some prefer that and it's easily done! Finally, I hope you'll give the dress a try!! Take care! -April

Hi April! I love your dress, and have been seeing so many beautiful dresses pop up in lots of great fabrics. I'd love to make one, but am wondering if I'll need to wait till I'm no longer pregnant, or if you think I might be able to make a few adjustments to make it maternity-friendly? Just curious!!

Thanks, and congrats on a great pattern!

Ashley!
My co-worker has made 2 maternity versions!! One early pregnancy.. she just graded between a small top and one size larger for bottom and put the shirring a bit higher. The second one she made went even higher with the shirring in front and it scooped down a little lower in the back. It looks gorgeous on her, as I'm sure it will you!!! Please send me a photo! :)
