Lovely dress and it really suits you. The bodice is very flattering. And I too have shared the feeling of "oh, my size isn't right yet... I won't sew for me", but am just starting to overcome it through making a few simple patternless A-line skirts. Then I'm going to screw up my courage and try for a dress.
