My Dress ~ Completed!

At last, ladies! Mom and I finished making my dress several weeks ago--March 19th, to be exact. Sorry for not getting these pictures on here sooner. I'm so thrilled with it! It is super comfortable and very pretty, I must say. I always wanted a colonial-style dress but never dreamed I'd actually own one! We had to take the bodice in a little. Next time we'll know to make a smaller size. (Click photos to see enlarged images.)

That is beautiful, Hannah!!! I'm so very excited for you! You did a wonderful job. I can't believe this was your first sewing project. I've only made two simple skirts so you could teach me a lot. =)

I'm so happy you finally have your Colonial dress. It looks so pretty, but you are far more lovely, my friend. Love you!

Awwww, it's absolutely perfect. Good job!! Congratulations :) It looks beautiful. I'm going to get one similar from a site I've been studying since my husband wanted to buy me a dress. I'm still trying to decide which one I wouldn't mind him spending the money on. He really wants me to do it. Here's the site if ya'll would like to see. http://www.recollections.biz/
