Long Sleeves Flower Girl Dress

One Year Anniversary of the Anagrassia Lace Flower Girl Dress

(Date first pub­lished Decem­ber 5, 2014)

I real­ly can’t believe it’s been one year since I made my first flower girl dress! It was the begin­ning of a new chap­ter in Anagrassia.

I want to thank all my read­ers and recent cus­tomers over this past year. I real­ly appre­ci­ate your sup­port and busi­ness. (And I’m real­ly grate­ful to those who pushed me to ven­ture out­side my com­fort zone and into the bridal world, you know who you are!) Future suc­cess will be the result of your ear­ly sup­port. I have you all to thank for the inspi­ra­tion that con­tin­ues to help me make Ana­gras­sia grow and be more of a reality.

I’m sor­ry my posts have been small and not very meaty. Writ­ing has nev­er been my forte, so it’s easy for me to delay writ­ing posts, updat­ing my blog/social media out­lets, and instead stick to the per­fec­tion of what I do: sewing and mas­ter­ing the craft. At the end of the day, I hope that my work will speak for itself. I do believe that one of the biggest fruits from this past year of projects and designs has been the con­fir­ma­tion of what I have firm­ly believed from the very start: the best things are made care­ful­ly and by the hand of the artist her­self. As I mas­ter the craft I am only more con­vinced that Ana­gras­sia can­not grow if this only means mass pro­duc­tion of items. Growth and mas­tery mean that my work sets prece­dents and rais­es the bar for everyone’s expec­ta­tions. It does not mean mak­ing more stuff more quick­ly and for less. I invite every­one to share in my work from this perspective

Thanks again for all your sup­port and inter­est in Ana­gras­sia. Please stay with me as Ana­gras­sia con­tin­ues to hone the craft and share in people’s sto­ries and love for all things beau­ti­ful and well made!

These dress­es were cus­tom designed by a bride for her junior bridesmaids.

(My dress form does­n’t quite fit the dress size, so the dress looks a lit­tle bag­gy  in the photos.)
