Here are some pictures of my 19th-century-inspired wedding dress. The first two are from my wedding day. I'm trying to find a better picture; hopefully someone else got a better angle!

So what are you going to make next, and out of curiosity what else have you made, looks professional to me, post some of your other garments I would love to see them. I love to sew myself and this really inspired me.

SewFineKY writes: I love your dress. It is so creative. I agree with the others - the ruffle really "finishes" it! Perfect for a wedding - a very feminine style and graceful.

BTW - where on Earth did you find that wonderful poster?
