Nice fabric, but...

TSP rules! In the face of such overwhelming positivity I concede  :). I will make a dress from the fabric and wear it at the wedding - there I've said it. It will either be M6886 - which I've made several times as dresses and tops - or the New Look faux wrap which came in the post a few days ago. I hadn't thought of a co-ordinating jacket but maybe I should. I thought my faux leather jacket would do. Hmm.

I want to make a start on it early February so I have a fortnight to decide.

Great help here, thanks  :).

I think it would look stunning in a Chinese style. The blossom and everything- perfect for a spring wedding. You could have fun accessorising with a matching clutch bag or hat trim.

I too like your fabric, should look lovely in a dress.  Get this made up and then decide if you would like to have a jacket to go over the top.  Judging by previous years we seem to have had beautiful weather in February and March - so an early spring, so fingers crossed that it continues that way and you can go out and enjoy wearing your lovely dress and feel springlike yourself.
