Special Occasion: Peacock Headbands

It was my assignment to make the headbands for all the brides maids for my sisters wedding. Her special embellishment piece for the entire wedding was peacock feathers. 

I thought it was so elegant. 

Props to my model

I made four total, and each one is just a bit different. I was pleased with how they turned out, but they were a little tricky in the beginning (read: flat feathers, curved headbands. meh.). After a little trial and error we decided to get along and got a pretty good system down by the time I got to the last one! More pics to come, and even a tutorial if anyone wants any hints or tips!

Special Occasion: Little Purple Dress

This is the cute little dress that I ended up making for miss G for my sisters wedding. All of the nieces in the family were in the same dress, and they were so adorable! Cute little purple girls running around. My sisters picked up the fabric and pattern, and sent it to me to assemble since we are in different states.

I'd have to say that it turned out better than I was imagining... 

I haven't sewn anything silky or satiny. 

The fabric did slide around a bit, but the pattern was easy enough 

it didn't really bother me at all.

My favorite part is the ruffles on the bottom of the dress. They are so sweet.
