First Wedding Dress - 2016

So ... it’s been a while ...

I’ve got to admit; I’m not much of a blogger and most times, I don’t have much to write about.
So I’m going to switch gears and just share what I’ve been working on. 😁

Here’s the first wedding dress I made for a lovely summer bride in 2016.




Quite a bit of hand sewing went into this - to eliminate visible seams on the lace. Appliques and a bit of creative seaming will give you that.


The ivory had to be kept clean. Hands were washed before sewing; dress was covered whenever possible.


And of course, the appliques had to be cut out and hand sewn to the top so it had more 'flowers' than the bottom.
