Love Notions Olympia Gown with Designer Stitch Brenda Petal Sleeves

 I could have made 10 different gowns to wear to my Niece's wedding.  But I stayed on track and made a dress and stuck with it.

I wanted to wear a velvet fabric since the wedding was so close to the holidays.  Then Fabric Mart Fabrics had a stretch velvet knit fabric with embroidered flowers.  OMG it was perfect! Deciding on a pattern was harder but I thought the Love Notions Olympia dress with the Designer Stitch Brenda petal sleeves would work nicely together.

It was so nice to see the girls get all dressed up.

Our Niece had a coffee bar for us.  It was so sweet to think of us on HER special day.

I love this photo!

The dress was like wearing a "buffet" dress.  It was very comfortable and forgiving.  I may shorten it to wear it to Church closer to Christmas.

Until next time...............
