Audrey Hepburn Funny Face Wedding Gown Complete

It is boxed up and ready to ship. I took everything in me not to try on the dress for a twirl! This was so much fun to create even with the little hiccups. I hate putting zippers on slitted skirts. I have a hard enough time with regular zippers.
I sure hope she shares some pictures! Here is Audrey in all her beauty I morphed my version of the dress in the picture. I should try making a veil sometime.

    Thanks guys. I still miss my brother and though I do like my new machine, I actually repaired a zipper on two sleeping bags with it today I may just get another LS-2125.

Upcoming project for February

I have something different to do in February. I'm pretty excited to do a new design. These pictures are for inspiration. The main thing I need to capture is the ruched bodice and she wants some bling. The back will be a full back and I'm thinking fabric covered buttons instead of a zipper.   I ordered the below bling for the gown.

Completed PS I Love You Dress...I'm pretty happy

I love this dress so much! I need to make myself one. As you can tell from my picture I'm very happy with how it turned out. Front and back view on form: Can anyone find my mistake from my previous bodice post? It is unfortunate that a shop on Etsy has been using my blog and my reviews on patterns.com to list the same items as me. It is flattering but at the same time irritating especially when the same pictures are used. I really love sharing how I hack patterns, make my own pieces to create, recreate garments but at the same time I'm trying to run a business and giving away your secrets sometimes hurts. After all the work I did with this dress I found an actual pattern that would make this dress entirely except for the pockets. Message me if you just want to make this dress for yourself and I will give you the pattern number.
