New Dress for a Wedding


I wasn't really happy with anything I had in the closet for Pony Gal to wear to my cousin's wedding, so I whipped this up in about an hour. The bottom was a very cute fabric remnant I had gotten from Hobby Lobby. There wasn't enough to make the entire dress, so I made the top out of an old white sheet I had kept specifically to use for white fabric. The tie is made from a crocheted lace out of Grandma V's stash. I love it! She was also complimented on her awesome shoes-a great garage sale find a couple years ago she has been waiting to fit in since we got them.
