I've had this print in before, and it was snapped up quickly, so it's great to have another bolt for spring.  What a gorgeous print for your spring and summer wardrobe.  I'm envisioning something with a fuller sleeve and maybe some beautiful tucks or pleats.  You might like to play with some lace insertion too.  This has Zimmerman vibes, so a romantic tiered dress may be calling you too.  Check out the NEW 'Roma' denims to wear with this pretty print. 

This is a lovely quality cotton voile.  You won't need to line a blouse (you'll just need skin-toned underwear).  For skirts, you make need a little lawn slip.  You'll love making blouses (any time of year) or a breezy dress for the hottest of summer days.
