Both of the tops look great and you look fantatsic! My sister in law is due with her and my brother's first baby in early May and I made a maternity dress for her a few weeks ago. Lots of elastic in the bust, empire waist and very fully skirt. The thing is, I wanted to keep it and I'm not even pregnant! I guess that is the beauty of empire styles, right?Kiraphhttp://kiraph.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363921935422034605.post-11599966382395389562010-01-20T13:55:56.429-08:002010-01-20T13:55:56.429-08:00Both tops look amazing - you've done a wonderf...Both tops look amazing - you've done a wonderful job.
