My first Dress!!

A VERY dear friend on mine needed a dress made of a certain material for a wedding that she was going to....so I said I would give it a shot. Truth be told....I waited until the day that she was coming over for the final fitting before I even started it. Hello diet coke and a no doz! BUT I got it done hours before she came over, and we did the final taking in and letting out, etc. I was so intimidated by this dress. At least she knew what she wanted it to look like. And Hobby Lobby did a $.99 pattern sale, so bingo. I had to get some pattern reading advice from my lovely friend Ashley, and she was a doll....got it all figured out in one morning. Even put in my very first zipper. I am somewhat proud of this little number...I make blankets, not dresses...especially not evening wear :) But from what I can tell it worked out well! So thank you Allyson, for helping me step out of my baby blanket box!!

Allyson is the one in the middle....isn't she GORGEOUS!?
