Marji, that is just lovely!
Totally gorgeous Marji!!! And I am in awe of both the way you made it from draping, and how quickly you managed it! Fantastic! You should feel so proud of yourself.
Marji, I'm extremely impressed. I was doing errands, and while driving around, thought about that beautiful dress you conjured out of thin air! The words 'no pattern used' kept coming to mind. I think you are sooooo fabulously talented!:-)

OK, I can forgive you for having precious little knitting done this last little while, especially when I see such beautiful creations!
Marji, these dresses are stunning, I am so impressed with the speed you make such beautiful clothes and the choices you make when putting colours together. They seem simple but make a lot of effect, A bientôt, Lucia
Another fabulous creation! And on vacation in stolen bits of time -- really special.
