My dad flew back to Panama last week and took a little package home with him for my mom
Yeah. That’s my mom looking all foxy coming home from church in the BWOF 2-2009-119 dress that I did not love on me. She’s managed to work it into several conversations and has shamelessly hinted around for more.
Soooo, yeah. She looks awesome. I now have no excuse not to make her something every so often.
It looks great on her!
How old was she when she had you?! Wow she really does look fabulous, and the dress is really great on her.
Wow, she looks great in that dress! A Good daughter would make another one immediately! Are you SURE that’s your Mom? She doesn’t look old enough to have kids your age!
She looks BEAUTIFUL!!! I think it was fate. 😀
Agree, this is beautiful on her. The dress got a good home.
Love it!
Your mom looks so pretty! The dress looks great on her!
Your mom looks AMAZING! That dress suits her so well. Yay for making our Mom’s outfits….of course I bought my Mom hers this year….ssshhhhhh!!!
She looks gorgeous! That’s a really fine-looking dress too 🙂
Wow Cidell she looks so pretty in that! Boy did you open up Pandora’s box.
Your mom looks great. The dress is perfect for her.
The dress looks lovely on her. I love the colours
Your mom is so beautiful! And the dress looks great! You are a sweet daughter. 🙂
Fabulous! Nicely done. Today I wish I lived somewhere warmer like Panama.
It looks wonderful on her!!
Your mom looks great.
Your mom is ROCKING that dress!!! Go Cidell!
I agree-your Mom looks so young, like a teenager! Just think how nicely you’ll age, too.
Your Mom is HOT. I liked the dress on you, but honestly, she really makes it look special, too. Maybe it’s the tropical lighting.
She looks wonderful in this dress. It fits her perfectly!
Wow your mom looks fabulous! The style really suits her.
That looks great on her !What a wonderful mother’s day gift!
Your mom certainly compliments that dress. Or is it the dress that compliments mom? I’m SURE she’s thrilled with it. Lovely gift for Mother’s Day.
That dress was meant for your mom. She looks terrific in it.
The dress looks great on your Mom. You know people always think after a certain age dresses have to be below the knee but the dress has a great length. Your mom looks like she is in excellent shape.
Your mother is gorgeous. Geez, she looks young!
Your mother is beautiful and that dress is perfect. Wow.
The dress looks fabulous on your Mom! Then again, I thought it looked good on you too!
That’s a perfect mother’s day gift.
Your mom looks amazing in the dress–it’s a great fit in style and color. She is really rocking it! Yah, it’s great that you and your mom wear the same size, although you may need to lock your closet when she comes to visit. (I’m joking!) 🙂
A very beautiful dress for a very beautiful mom!
Great fit, the dress looks fabulous on your mom.
That pattern looks great on your Mum! It makes me want to make it!
The dress looks wonderful on your Mom. She’s so beautiful. Not hard to see were you get your good looks.
Work it Mama! That dress is so perfect on her!!
She is stunning in it! Look where all your gorgeous genes came from 🙂 You’re immeasurably fortunate to have her in your life.
Wow! You got good genes! Your mom and her dress are both lovely! That’s a good incentive to sew for her–she wears the project so well!
I’m sure she appreciates the thoughtfulness of her daughter!
Another mom…with sons who don’t sew! LOL
Mom looks great in this dress! I tell you, if my daughter ever made me a dress I would have a heart attack.
Hi there!
This is absolutely stunning!
Fantastic work!
Peace, blessings and DUNAMIS!

Wow! It looks great on her! I thought it looked great on you too.
You mom looks amazing and beautiful in that dress! Lucky you to have such a awesome mom.
Good Grief – your mother must have had you when she was 2 y/o….she looks so young – like you’re older sister. What fabulous genes you have!
Wow she really looks fantastic in that dress, I’m not surprised she’s hinting at some more!
Your mom is a fox! And she looks so proud to be wearing that great dress. Now you have to make her more.
The very definition of a hot mama! The dress suits her perfectly.
Your Mom looks stylish (and quite content!) in your dress; it fits is as if you made it with her in mind!! What a great Mother’s day “surprise” for her! Linda
Your mom looks fantastic in your dress!
Wow your Mom looks awesome . I really like that dress , its so flattering .
she looks so cute! i like =)
I must add yet another affirmation of what a great dress that is for your mom and that she most definitely IS a foxy looking Mom!!
Oh my goodness, she looks so adorable! You’re inspiring me to sew more for my mom.
Goodness, gracious! She only looks old enough to be your sister! Your mom is stunning – and the dress is pretty darn lovely too. Thanks for being so generous with your writings and pictures.
oh damn, i’m quitting. When someone’s mom looks a million times better in the dress than me, it just deflates me completely!
Yes, she does look really good and I don’t blame her for wanting you to make her some more lovely dresses! Can I ask what she is doing in Panama? My cousin has a thing about living in Honduras and head-in-the-sand me is just coming around to discovering Central America… I’d do a search to try to answer my own question, but I don’t find a search button thing on your blog.
I envy you your sewing skills, but realise you work hard to have them. I’m slowly coming along with mine…you’re an inspiration!
It looks like to made it just for her. Wonderful, and so sweet!
[…] what a PITA the sleeves on this were. I first made this up as a dress last year. It’s now with my mom due to my total discomfort in wearing a form fitting knit dress. This top has been cut out since at […]
[…] Here’s a slightly more complicated refashion I did just in time for the September primaries. I’ve made this pattern as a polka dot top and as a dress (now owned by my mom). […]
