I’ve been shopping for a dress. A mother-of-the-bride dress. I don’t have forever. I found one online at the black and white store, but I don’t really think I should have to pay $160. So, what I am working on today: cutting off this long, gunmetal gray skirt (purchased NWT at thrift years ago for $1, worn by me several times, loaned to a friend for an event, and even used in a show). Using the leftovers to build a top, I am trying to recreate a style similar to the dress pictured.
Lol. Perfectionist Me thinks I should wait till it is finished to post, but Amusing Me thinks it is more fun to post now. Suggestions, comments, snide remarks?
Oh man, that’lll be fabulous! I love how it’s sculptural. Very modern yet voluptuously regal at same time.
The hardest part for me is momentum but I actually have both front and back of the top cut out, pressed, and marked already. If it turns out, it will be perfect; if not, it will have been a great experience! 🙂
I think you are one brave woman! But it will be incredible when it’s finished!
PS – Soooo happy to see you blogging again!
Jenna! You should find me on fb; I was looking for the “like” button on your comment. 🙂 thanks for your encouragement!
I’m not finding you on FB…must be doing something wrong. You can find me at Delighting in Today or my personal – Jenna Qu. I’d love to connect!
Ok. I liked your blog but couldn’t find your personal. Don’t get why it should be hard, but glad to get this far. 🙂
