Oh dear, I didn't get to the computer again last night! Sorry! Just subtract
from her 87 cm maybe 25 if it's not too late. I think I'll go with Olwyn
Mary in this case.

Np -probs. I'll put in a couple of deep tucks by the hem and you can
let them out when she needs them. :) The lining is shorter by the
depth of the frill, so I'll shorten the outside to match.

It's not like all pink. It's a very pretty pint print. I think it's one
of those prints that will be the color the person looking at it will
see. Is the Back ground white? The print reminds me of the jacket I wore
when my middle daughter got married, the first time. I said it was pink,
DH said it was green and DD's all said it was blue.

That style is darling! I love the pattern and the print. I
think I may have something very similar in my stash, it
belonged first to my mohter, so it's very well aged. ;-}
