Sorry for my silence.
I have been working like a mad woman over here
I made a blessing dress/Christening gown for my niece
This is the original design:

This is the original design:
made of dupioni silkwith a pick up skirt on the overlay
I made it my way - without a pattern
the most time-consuming part was these rosettes
because they took 20 minutes each
and I had to make 75

isn't she pretty?
my favorite part was the bonnet
the camera didn't do it justice.
especially not my little point-and-shoot
the fabric was so luxurious
and my niece was so pretty
as soon as I receive the photos taken by the professional
I will post them for you

You made that dress. Without a pattern. I just....it's just that....I'm speechless. I kind of just want to stand near you and bask is your amazingness.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have that same skirt. But I don't have a top nearly as cute to wear with it.
You are so stinkin' creative I am jealous. I think you should never use a pattern because you do such great creative work without it.
ReplyDeleteYour an amazing AUNTIE!! We love you so much!! Thank you for all the hard work, tears and blood you put into the dress :)
