I love the dress and the hair!

 

You're going to be our next Project Runway star! LOL

OMG, Jac, I woudl die if I committed myself to making a wedding parties dresses!

 

This process was basically me stumbling thru each step, so no way would I want to do that to another person. But I am getting a sewing machine for christmas/birthday, so maybe I can eventually be good enough to do something for others.

 

It definitely felt good to have people compliment the dress. Although, I think the fact that I was wearing yellow in a cloud of black made me stand out more, so that's probably why people were no noticing of my dress.

 

And thanks, Er! Maybe in 20 years, i can do Project Runway for Leni (Heidi's daugher)!

Hi Carly, the dress looks great! good job! You should be a pro in no time especially with your sisters help. (you should smile, but you know that, remember all your pictures turned out so nice from your wedding because you were smiling - you can do it!) R

Carly that's amazing!! I LOVE the dress!

[boscobel]

I know, I know. But I really hate posing for pictures. The wedding was actually easier like that cuz they were talking thousands of photos, so I am sure that the majority of them I looked just as miserable. But since I was so happy that day, it was easier to catch me smiling. I always think that when I look back at pictures "i should've relaxed and smiled" but at the time, I am just too uncomfortable to do it!

 

Oh, and thank, Anny! It means so much to me to have everyone thnk I did a great job!

hi loving the dress you made the colour looks great.I cant for the life of me sew, but just having a look could you just have to much fabric for your girls? could you take some out to make you feel better in it rather than changing it from halterneck.

Oh, I think that turned out really cute! I wish I could sew....I'm always designing stuff in my head but never finding it in the stores....you did really good. Love the belt and color combo.
