"Can I wear it<br />tomorrow?" Hazel wanted me to make her one just like it for when she's a<br />flowergirl next. I had to break it to her that it was unlikely since she was<br />one for my brother and now all members of our family are married and I'm not<br />going to be hoping for a second-go-round for any of them just so she can<br />wear a floaty dress!Hazelnutshttp://www.hazelnutgirl.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7750720746807403757.post-4109973625969367672012-01-30T21:15:10.501+13:002012-01-30T21:15:10.501+13:00Thanks!Thanks!Hazelnutshttp://www.hazelnutgirl.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7750720746807403757.post-43637316585344126892010-11-27T18:29:27.259+13:002010-11-27T18:29:27.259+13:00WE've just spent the day looking for a flower ...WE've just spent the day looking for a flower girl dress for my little one to wear to my sister-in-law (to be) wedding next April. we didn't want to buy anything today, as she may grow before then, but wanted to know what's around. a whole day spent in the city and we only found one dress, which had a price tag of $190. there were none in her size, in the correct ivory the bride wanted, so the shop can make one for her, it will only take 5 months. and i'm no searching online for patterns and inspiration, and wondering weather i should take the plunge and make one myself. {if it were my own wedding, then yes i would, but my sister-in-law has quite different expectations and ideals as me, and i wouldn't want to buy all the fabric and spend all the time making it, and then the tiny imperfections annoy her....}.Ellie - Petalplumhttp://petalplum.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7750720746807403757.post-74985928674740007652010-08-23T12:48:54.055+12:002010-08-23T12:48:54.055+12:00It is a beautiful dress!It is a beautiful dress!Jennwith4http://sewingthestressaway.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7750720746807403757.post-59471742445567782832010-08-01T14:07:28.250+12:002010-08-01T14:07:28.250+12:00Ha!

What a lucky little girl.<br /><br />I'm not showing it to Mishi - she's to be a flower girl (for my brother-in-law + his fiance) next May and she hasn't stopped talking dresses since she found out about it. It'll be pink and purple if she has her way. <br />Oh, but a dress like your floaty white one could be worn so many times to different events.
