Back On Track

After a long absence, I am back! As I mentioned before, I had a mega wedding i was making the dresses for and was so busy. That is all over and done and although I am in the middle of doing another wedding for the end of September, it's only 5 dresses and 4 cravats and handkerchiefs, so I am less stressed about it.

Here are some images of the dress in progress. I am waiting to get some official photographs from the bride which will show all of the bridesmaid dresses also.

The bride decided she wanted to wear Gold instead of white, ivory or cream. The bridesmaid dresses were in dark chocolate satin with a gold and cream sash. I also made a netted hooped underskirt with a train to give the dress a little body.

The fabric for the bride's dress was douppion and the bridesmaid dresses were in crepe back satin.


Have a great morning. X

Happy New Year!!!!

Happy New Year to you all!!!!! I wish you all good health, happiness, love, joy and peace and all God's eternal blessings!!!

A new year is always full of new experiences, challenges and opportunities!!!

I was ill just before and during Christmas so I was unable to do any blogging. I had flu, and for the first time in many , many years I was confined to my bed for several days straight.

I am feeling much better now and I return to work tomorrow.

I don't normally make any new year's resolutions as such, instead I have a long list of things I'd like to do.
Included in my list this year is to make the time to visit more museums and exhibitions, learn to play the guitar and concentrate on growing my Etsy business.

Have a great rest of weekend
