The Bridesmaid Dress

I have been asked to be a bridesmaid in my boyfriends sisters wedding! I am totally excited by this, while at the same time, worried. I guess that just about anywhere a person gets a dress it would need to be ordered and shipped, so it can take some time to receive the dress.

Well, that just isn't good enough for me. No way. I need to at least see the dress more than three days before the wedding.

I feel like all of the sewing I have done up to this point was all in preparation for this dress. Tiffany blue is the color that the bride wishes us to wear. So, I took my hour lunch one day and went to the fabric store and what do ya know, I found the fabric!


The really sad thing about the fabric is that it looks like a different color each time I take a picture of it! The image with the red background and lighter is once I actually took it outside into the sun. This is the best picture that I have so far of the color. 


This is the dress with the sweetheart neckline and halter top. I do no think that I will be using that top..

Here is an example of one variation of waistband. 


Here is one made with tulle.

And there is what the sweetheart looks like exposed. Not sure what direction I will be taking, but at least I know that Ive got what I need, and that no matter what I will be wearing something the right color and that resembles a dress.

hehehehee.
