Sometimes, a better dress design happens when one simplifies. I went from full-on vintage lace, big pleats and frills…to scaled vertical tucks and old embroidered trim. I still have plans for some bows, though! 🙂

What’s On
Remember the brown silk suit? Same pattern draft, but in cotton. Once I get those cut steel buttons on and photograph it, the brown one will be for sale, but this cotton print one is mine all mine! 😁 Wouldn’t that one be pretty in a blue print with blue silk? That one will be next and that one will be another one for sale in the shop!
Let There Be Bows!
Let there be bows…what’s a summer frock without them? Gorgeous old silk ribbon from Elizabeth Emerson Designs! 😁
At The Ball!
And finally we made it! In spite of all the last-minute adjustments, snafus, and general craziness, it was all worth it! Of, course no ball is complete without last-minute adjustments to the ballgown…
Arriving at the Assembly Rooms…
Overall, it was a marvelous experience and the pictures don’t do justice to the event- we’ll definitely be back. 😄
