"I'd not thought of using scollops for armholes or hems ... This would be a very pretty detail for any simple little dress. I can see them on a LBD and looking divine!"

"It would be great if there was a simple single page drawing of this pattern that would just give you the basic outline with measurements. It looks fairly simple to make so it would be simple if it just gave the basic parts with the neck armholes, then the width length measurements below the armholes."

This is a lovely handbag project! I could see this as a good way to use up fabiric remnants that are high end, and you could use smaller pieces for each portion. This would be beautiful in a sturdy tapestry fabric or even a reinforced velvet with stiffer interfacing, add some vintage buttons for embellishment or as the closure to complement the fabric!
