Thanks @delishtreats for your kind comments!
Actually, I don't have the whole dress yet, what you see is only the front part, which is one third of the dress... (I still have to do the back, sleeves and the sides...).
But when I'm done, I'll surely be modelling it! :D

I would have loved to have a neighbour like yours! I'd say she would have found all mistakes in my dress...

But I really get how annoying it can be to have someone try and push their hobby on you...
It maybe the reason why you found Irish crochet so complicated, although I must say it's not as difficult as it seems, just really tedious and slow...

Thanks again for stopping buy!
