It is a great Lola too! I didn't really chose to not have pockets, I just ran out of fabric, but I like the look of the dress without the pockets. I like the oversized ones on the pattern envelope, but I doubt they would be flattering on my big bum.<br /> I had to wing it with the sizing, I made the size for my hips and then just took in the princess seams on the front, but I have a bit of fabric excess in the shoulder and on the back, so I guess next time I'll use the diagram sent to me to mix the sizes...Wendy Parthoensnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071908886224654435.post-18932133523121998892013-11-26T08:18:32.300+01:002013-11-26T08:18:32.300+01:00Lola is a lovely girl, you can take her just about...Lola is a lovely girl, you can take her just about anywhere. I made my Lola a few months back and made the top one size smaller than the bottom, but the next one I will probably make the size to fit my hips and do a SBA. You Lola looks lovely, I really like that you chose a light colour and with no pockets :)Sandrahttp://sewiststitch.blogspot.co.nz/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071908886224654435.post-13636774021385342442013-11-23T16:14:55.809+01:002013-11-23T16:14:55.809+01:00Hi Laura, thanks!

It's just an accessory, so figure it doesn't have to really fit... but I stand by prewashing! ;) Your dress is lovely though - I've been eying Lola too lately! Thanks for the explanation of how to make it fit a pear shape... I'll definitely need to do that too! :)Gillianhttp://crafting-a-rainbow.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071908886224654435.post-52536879616119771562013-11-22T23:56:07.071+01:002013-11-22T23:56:07.071+01:00With all the pretty things you say about her and j...With all the pretty things you say about her and just looking at your photos, you made me want a Lola for myself!
