Well my dress is looking a lot like the photo on the right side, only better. That photo is of the previous version. The skirt portion I kept so that is the same.
I sewed a lot today. The lining is attached using a combination of the pattern instructions and my own method. I am ready to insert the zipper, then sew the side seams. Then I only have to hem the dress and the lining-yeah! I see an end insight.
I just was not going to let this dress defeat me and I was not going to let this lovely fabric be wasted. I am liking the fit of the dress now that I got the upper bodice and midriffs to fit and insert properly!
I am ready to move on to some other projects. I think I am going to make a few tops that will be easy-peasy to make. I need some new ones for the fall/winter. I also want to make a few jackets and of course a few dresses.
Photos and more later.

I'm glad you didn't let the dress get the best of you. I'm right behind you as I complete somelong overdue projects, and then work on stuff for me. :)

I bet you're glad you didn't give up! That dress turned out beautifully.
