correction to previous post, tried the other link and it worked fine - *note to myself - always wait until second cup of coffee before trying things like this :-)

Editor's Note: It wasn't your coffee, it was mine! There was a typo so the file wasn't working. Sorry to everyone who was frustrated by this. It should work perfectly now.

I am having trouble trying to get the directions with the information you gave. Several new babies coming this spring and really like the dress a lot. I had been looking for something cute and this is it.
