And of course, a labor of love.<BR/>Thanks so much for sharing it. <BR/>I was just thinking this past week, as I'm working with some challenging designs and fabrics, that I worked with a lot of this stuff before I knew it was supposed to be "hard". My biggest challenge with my first silk charmeuse project was being able to afford it. I didn't have too much trouble sewing with it, mostly because I didn't know I was supposed to have trouble.Marjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08695305834402487163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225541309421891346.post-61142249821632417012008-10-07T20:52:00.000-04:002008-10-07T20:52:00.000-04:00Truly beautiful dress.

My boyfriend, soo to be husband bought me a sewing machine for my birthday. I made his suit for the wedding...a turquoise polyester (Hey, it was the 70's)I drew a design of my perfect wedding dress and planned to make it, but we were walking through the mall one evening when he said "Look...it's your dress!" It was exactly what I sketched an it fit beautifully. We thought it was a sign,so we bought it. It was a thin linen Gunne Sax type dress. Last year I cut it up to make hankies for my daughter's bridal party. There is still enough fabric and lace for a christening gown for my first grandbaby! Thanks for sharing your beautiful gown with us. MaryMaryissewfasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12780345687245124170noreply@blogger.com
