A wonderful dress to kick off summer intercession!

I found a beautiful pattern on Burdastyle.. The directions were a bit confusing and the elastic thread was painful to work with.. I figured since I had worked with elastic thread before, this project would be super easy.. (Ha. Ha.) I love the fabric.. so much! I got it for $2 a yard. So it cost me about.. 6, 7 bucks. Pretty nice for a whole dress, right? :) I washed the fabric and it came out a bit pinker than it was before because I put in a small scrap piece with it when I washed it. It's all good though.. The final project came out pretty nice. But REALLY- this was a nightmare for such an amateur like me.. I feel like I've learned a lot though..? ;) Hehe, do you like the ring in picture 2? My lovely sister bought it for me today! :) Feedback, please!
