Shauna's wedding dress
comments (8) December 28th, 2009 in sewing, design, garment construction, fabric, reader's closetFor Shauna I made a dress from organza with a rouched bodice and flounces trailing diagonally down the skirt to the knees, then straight down. I designed the pattern based on a designer dress than Shauna liked. The back is just like the front with an invisible zipper.

I made a similar dress for my daughter recenty but I had so much trouble with the hemming of the organza. How was the hem finished?
