PostSubject: New dresses   Sun Apr 06, 2008 7:11 am
My gray dress, which I finished yesterday morning around 1:30-ish?




It's princess seams with a circle skirt, out of insanely stretchy fabric. I cut a hole for my waist that was about 4.5 inches diameter, and it fits a little loosely. Crazy, hm? It's my new sleep dress.

My blue infinity dress:




Kindly ignore my paleness and the rather awkward candid shot Katie took.. Mom was chiding me for the back being tied too low. Oh horror, you could see the top of my bra band. Surprised How horrific, right?

The blue one can actually be tied numerous ways.. the top is just two very long straps that I can wrap around and tie however I feel like. Smile

Yes, I'm going to sleep in it.. at least while in St. Louis. It's kind of a weak jab at Nathan's heart, because if he shows up to see me, the only time will be at night, when everyone else is sleeping. Girls at work said to look hot if he might show, so that's why this one was born.

Meep? Um.. I dunno, really. Probably wouldn't charge you much, coz you're so nifty, and they're so easy to make.

LOL! That's SOOOO awesome. I've seen dresses similar to that, and they are EXPENSIVE. I think they call them "Goddess Dresses" or something like that.

Well, let me know, and I shall send you monies. Smile Me wants that sexy dress!

It'll be a lot cheaper than anything stores would sell, coz, hey. I get a discount at work! Smile You have to let me know what kind of black knit you want, just a regular jersey or something softer, more t-shirt like, and if you'd want the handkerchief hem or the circle skirt.. Smile I've got to go get ready for my drive now, but we'll talk when I get back from hell, ok?

Thanks, girls! Plats, that's a huge compliment from you, I'm really quite pleased at it. Kiki, I'm sure now that I've done it once, I'll be making more similar dresses. Now that I know what I'm doing it'll be far easier to repeat it. Kayla, they are really, really comfortable. Like, live in them forever, comfortable. Smile
