Dress #1 Done!

Yay! My orange and pink plaid dress is done... I'll post pictures later. It's really cute! AND: I happened to have enough fabric laying around for another, blue flowery stuff, little button flowers.

A new dress

Well, I haven't posted In forever!!! I'm horrible, JK. I'm going to be getting a custom made dress for this summer- That's the fancy way to put it. It other words- I hate the way I sew, so my mom's friend is making me a beeautiful summer dress. *smiles* I have to clean her house while she sews- which sounds good to me. The patterns I had been looking at are: Vouge V8469- this pretty little dress, scooping necline, knee length, with a tie-bow in the front. It's adorable. Cap sleeves. http://www.voguepatterns.com/item/V8469.htm?tab=whats_new&page=3 V8308- This one is flowy and gathered looking. Sleeveless. It's reaalllly pretty. http://www.voguepatterns.com/item/V8380.htm?search=8380&page=1 Simplicity 3780- This is a retro 5os dress, simply-not-so-simple. Pretty detailed. Halter Style, needs a picture to do it justice. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11075969 Burda 7798- This is a really simple high waisted dress. Cute though. http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/patterns/sewingpatterns.pl?patternid=17420 New Look 6675-http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/patterns/sewingpatterns.pl?patternid=14018 6778-http://www.simplicity.com/index.cfm?cat=6&type=0&sec=66&startrow=1 6725-http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/patterns/sewingpatterns.pl?patternid=16177 I've decided on either of the Vouge patterns. I want something comfy and not to dressy. But stylin' :). I still need to get fabric.... That's the hardest choice!!!!

Rivendell Bridal and one cute dress

This is a really neat site that makes elvish wedding dresses… http://www.rivendellbridal.com/ These dresses are just beautiful! I absolutely love them. Hopefully they will still be around when I get married :) (that'll be a while)

***

You can purchase this super-cute dress on http://www.overstock.com/ It is one of my favorites! I would have wore it for a party i'm going to tonight, but I have a hard time with online shopping, getting the fit right... And, I didn't want to spend the money:)
