“Made in Honor” Dress
The maid of honor dress for my sister’s wedding ( tomorrow) will be extra special!
The top portion of the dress was my babcha’s Ukrainian embroidery.
After my babcha passed away, my aunt gave me some of my babcha’s unfinished embroidery. At first, I was torn on what I should make out of it. So I left the embroidery aside until I was inspired to create something.
Well- I got inspired to use it for this dress!
I was extremely excited to get started on this top!
So, I quickly finished the embroidery and created the bodice pattern one evening!
Here is a sneak peek of tomorrow outfit!
I have been so touched reading this blog which my friend, Olga, told me about. You are such a beautiful and creative person. Your love and care of your family members as shown by the use of your imagination and sewing skills in preparing for the wedding and the reverence for your grandmother speaks volumes about you and your family. (For love is as strong as death. Song of Songs 8:6)
Beautiful! It is wonderful to see the thought that you have put into each of the garments that you have created for the wedding. What a touching tribute to your Babcha’s memory to include her embroidered piece. Everything speaks volumes to the beautiful person that you are 🙂 Now I hope you can relax and enjoy your “power” weekend!
