You shine up very nicely! You should be very proud of that dress and Logan is lucky to have a friend like you, so creative and intelligent.

Ehh! Do you know why I haven't commented on this yet? When I saw the thumbnail I thought: this is a picture of two models from a fashion show
I didn't recognize you at all!! You are so nice here!! Your mate is very lucky to have a partner like you!... He seems to know it
Your ID picture is nice as well of course, but here you look so professional... You will become the first stylist that wears her own creations at fashion shows...
It goes without saying that the dress itself is really gorgeous...

Oh wow, this was really beautiful, I especially liked the skirt. How long did it take you to make?

Thank you!
All together it took me about a good month and a half with on and off sewing. The skirt took about two weeks.

Oh well, I love it either way... now I have to go fix the waistband so I can use it for county fair for 4-H. But that shouldn't take to long.... I hope... -.-

Awww, thank you dear. I want to keep working hard at my sewing skills and thankfully I have a patient mentor (my wonderful grandmother) to help me out on the rough patches. Thanks for the kind words and encouragement!
