These gowns where made for
Shara's Wedding. The flower
girl dress was made using Pattern # ?. The
bridesmaid dress I designed myself using a current Vogue pattern as
well as a vintage pattern from the 1950's. Two bridesmaids
gowns were needed, one with a green satin sash and one with a peach
satin sash - to match the flower girl's dress. I made the
matching hats using a pre-purchased buckram frame (www.hatsupply.com/buckram.htm
BFF 005) to which I simply glued a
layer of the dress lining, a layer of the taffeta, and finally a
layer of the organza. The shawls were simply 2 long strips of
the organza, sewn together, and the edges finished with a scallop
stitch.
