Bridal news
I am honoured to be included in a new, exciting project out of Europe called MarryJim. MarryJim aims to be the source for brides who are looking for dresses that are not the typical, big fat meringues that seem to be the overwhelming choice for the Western world. On MarryJim, brides to be can shop for unique dresses and unique dress designers to help create their vision of the perfect wedding gown. Or wedding suit. What have you.

Bridesmaids Dresses
I bin doin lots of things, but I’m so busy with the collection that I haven’t been blogging about any of them. I wanted to tease you with this pic of bridesmaids dresses though…they’ve turned out so pretty. Can’t show you the whole deal til after the bride’s wedding, but here is a taste…
Bridesmaids
One of the weddings I’m working on at the moment is a really lovely group. The bride was so excited about the bridesmaids’ dresses that she decided to order one to wear at her shower. There were more designs, but each in the first group of girls (I’m organizing it by proximity) has two favourites from the slew of sketches posted below. They will decide by the end of the weekend, and I’ll start pattern drafting next week. (more…)
The designs Tara didn’t choose
These are the two dress designs that my sister did not select. She originally said she wanted something simple, but I had a feeling that her idea of simple and my idea of simple were not quite the same.
My sister’s wedding gown
I am making a wedding gown for my sister, who is getting married in Mexico on a beach resort next May. I’m in the bridal party, so I’m pretty excited about the entire thing. So far the best thing about this project is that it has brought my sister and I closer. I guess that’s pretty cheesy, but we’ve had some ups and downs in the past. She has given her permission for me to post about the process of this project.
