So I haven't really been showing a lot of sewing projects lately have I? That is because I've been outfitting a wedding party. Well, the bride and her daughter that is. :) A friend of mine was getting married and as my gift to her I made their dresses. It was highly scary for me (well the flower girl dress wasn't ;) but the daunting task of sewing such an important garment as a wedding dress was pretty scary.
When Jami told me she wanted a mermaid style dress, I had nightmare visions of 80's poof. But once I understood what she had in mind, I was excited and I am very happy with the results - she looked beautiful!
And no, I was not wedding photographer (oh the total pressure-I feel for those brave souls!), I just selfishly ushered the bride off for a few minutes after the ceremony and we took some pictures.
Jami was so brave and sung a song to her new sweetie and she was amazing! Nobody had a clue that she could sing like that!
I hope you guys don't mind wedding pictures, I had a lot and wanted to share. :)
Sandi














You did such a beautiful job.

Yayyy, the pictures! :o) Sooooo pretty! I love the fuschia with white. One of my sis-in-laws did the same combo. Perfect for summer weddings!
Out of curiosity, who made the jewelry?

Many of these online retailers are establishing themselves as specialty stores that deal in nothing but tattoo equipment and sell everything you are likely to ever need at premium prices.

Those who put on golf shoes inserts or insoles in their normal shoes should also ensure that they have these in their golf shoes to ensure that the feet correspond properly to provide the maximum swing.
