Love, love, love this pattern! It’s advanced, however as a beginner I was able to make it because of how well drafted the pattern is, the detailed instructions, and the sew-along. It took a lot of time, but it’s well worth the effort. When I wear it out I get so many compliments! Particularly on how expensive it looks. If you have patience and are willing to take the time to make something truly beautiful, I highly recommend this pattern.
