It's very fitted (the muslin helped me refine the fit a bunch!). All the seams match and the pleats are centered perfectly. She looks lovely in it. I'm so proud of myself.
I was really apprehensive about this whole project. The fabric was very slippery and wouldn't take a good crease when ironed.
Thanks for the support and kind words.

I knew you could do it. It looks wonderful.

Way to go!
Working with slippery fabric can be agony.Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

Beautiful! I do not sew, but do a lot of needlework of different kinds, and slippery fabric is just a challenge.
