The Dress is done! I truly fell in love with this dress as I made it. It was pretty complicated for me, I really struggled with the pleats, sleeves (in 2 parts, and with pleats!!), the zipper (of course) and the ROSES. I was so happy with the end result. I must say that I think Tenaya's custom made dress looked just great next to the store bought dresses!

I pleased with my restraint.....I managed to refrain from pointing out all the things that I think are "wrong" with this dress. When complimented, I managed to stick with "why...thank you"!!
