The story of one custom dress

I recently created this custom dress.  I wrote its story for my new etsy listing.

Ginny and I were working in my studio... first 9 photos

This is the first of several posts to show you Ginny and I working together in my studio.  We had a fantastic fun time.  I can hardly wait to do it again some day.  Ginny, when is your next sewing vacation???                                                                                       

 All photos in this series by The Pinwheel Collective.  Thanks, Katie and Amelia Schmid!

 Ginny gave me a gorgeous pearl necklace to match hers.

Ginny and I worked to turn her many fabulous fabrics into dresses and skirts and such that she will wear for years to come.  Beautiful garments!

Thank you, Pinwheel Collective Photographers!  You photog sisters are wonderful photographers to work with.  Your visits to my studio are always a big pleasure and we love your work.

1930s Style- A satin and lace wedding gown

I used a 1930s pattern to create this vintage style wedding gown.  The gown is satin with lace cuffs, collar, yoke, shoulders, and train hem.  The gown may still be available for purchase.  Contact me if you are interested. 

Thank you to the lovely Sunayana Palike for modeling!
