The" Wedding" Dress


Rose and Charlotte will be in the wedding of a friend's daughter on May 23. I was able to walk into the bridal shop and purchase a junior bridesmaid's dress for Rose with complete ease. However, Charlotte's flower girl dress is being smocked and sewn by yours truly. (What was I thinking???)!

She sees me working on it and innocently declares,"Oh, you're working on my wedding dress."

The cognizable thought that runs through my boggled mind is I probably should be working on it. If I start on it now, I might have it completed by the time she gets married.

That is such intricate work. I don't really know how you do smocking. I would enjoy a post about the process.

I like the faint green against the white.

Absolutely stunning, handmade by Mum. I love the sense of humour.

That looks so intricate, delicate and beautiful. But it must take forever! I agree, you better get working on that wedding dress now, especially if it's going to be smocked.
