After months of it watching me cower in the corner, I finally made my move, and have emerged victorious over the Flower Girl Dress. While it thought it would leave me in a huddled mess, I stood up to the challenge of it’s incredible super powers. The Slick Fabric:
The dastardly Invisible Zipper:
The Stiff Fabric Sash:
The Full Lining:
The defeated enemy:
And again:
I am glad I took the challenge of making this dress. I learned some new techniques, and figured out how to put a lining in a dress when none is called for in the pattern. It was interesting, and fun. I still have some “finger work” left to do, but it is basically finished. I can’t hem it because the Flower Girl lives 250 miles from me, but I hate hemming anyway. We’ll have to wait until June to see a picture of Adayla wearing it. Stefanie and Adam are getting married on June 18. Next, I get to make the Sash For The Bride.
Beautiful! For my son’s wedding, almost 2 years ago, I made four, lined “flower girl” dresses. The hard part was leaving the hemming until the last minute..luckily I did because they all had growth spurts!

Absolutely gorgeous. Can you make one in my size?

My Seester,
It is absolutely GORGEOUS. Adayla will surely be one of the best dressed there….aside from the Bride and her Mama š Thank you again for stepping up to the challenge….we would have never found a dress on the rack as beautiful as this š <3
I am in awe of your abilities. It looks amazing. Some day you will have to teach me. You can be my sewing Yoda!
