This will be my first attempt at a wedding dress. I’m excited about the challenge. It will be lining, with the horse hair (stiffning) satin and Chiffon to cover the satin. the Bodice the Chiffon wil be rouched. And then the belt will make the dress. I had 2 friends that helped me to draft the pattern, on my own i’m not able to do that yet! but this year i want to learn patternmaking!
This is not the real dress, this was a test run. Starting on the real fabric next week! This was to see if the pattern would fit.
