Please vote on my dress in the contest!

I entered my first sewing contest with a beautiful poppy scarf dress.  I would love to be able to win the Bernina sewing machine but I need your vote to do it. I now love shirring, I can't believe I have never tried it before, its so easy!  I was so thrilled to enter the contest but as soon as I hit submit, I had this panic of what am i doing, I am not a good enough designer.   What if people laugh at me.  After some reassurance from some good friends I am feeling good about things.  Even if I don't win I took the risk and entered the contest. Oh and not to mention this is the 2nd dress I made for the contest, the other one, well lets just say I cried over it and not tears of joy.  I also want to comment on this fabric, it has been in my stash for quite some time, I got it of ebay forever ago and just couldn't bear to sew it, its my favorite, lol.   I am really glad I used it though and plan on wearing the dress as soon as I have an opportunity.  It will work great with a little shrug or jacket during the colder months.  I love love love the collar design and will be using it on more items.
