Happy Easter!

So, I decided to make a dress for Easter. Generally, all the items I make are self-drafted/taken from items I already own but this time, I decided to try out a pattern. I don't really recall how I found this one, but *shrugs*

Alteration: Neckline increased by 2 inches because I thought it was too deep of a cut. In retrospect, I think I should have let it be because now it limits the necklaces I can wear and caused some bunching in the midline. Also, I totally measured myself wrong/cut out a larger pattern size than I actually fit so there was a lot of seam ripping and alterations before I was mostly satisfied with the result. 

I'm usually not one for frills, but the sleeve detail seemed interesting so I kept it. 

It was a beautiful day! Lots of sunshine and a cool sea breeze.

 Unfortunately, the lighting wasn't in the most favorable position outdoors, so we opted for an indoor photo-op with B's awesome spring decor :)

  3. Austin trim PVC patches are highly durable, waterproof, and resistant to extreme temperatures and environmental conditions, making them suitable for outdoor use and rough handling.
