I find myself inspired by the creations of those around me (in life and online) and have decided to start this blog in an attempt to channel this rediculous creative itch that I have.

B5491
One of my college buddies, Phil, married the sweetest girl (Meg, not pictured, sorry!) two weeks ago in a gorgeous outdoor ceremony. I made this dress in July, specifically for the wedding and have been meaning to get a picture of it since. This is the best picture showcasing the dress from the event, as unfortunately, I still have not photographed it on its own.
This pattern was a breeze. I cut a size 8 - one larger than normal - since I used a woven instead of the recommended knit. I also fully lined the dress as the pattern only called for a partial lining of the bodice and I'm not a fan of wearing a slip. Other than that, I didn't make any alterations. This dress went together like a dream. I don't know that I'll make it again, but if I do it will probably be the longer version.
