Last weekend Autumn, Trahaearn and I went to Spotlight looking for a pattern and fabric for the dress.
After much searching through pattern books, it is extremely hard to find a beautiful and modest pattern we finally found this pattern.
Autumn will have the short sleeve dress and the fabric is shantung, with a satin lining with lace over the bodice.
I can see I will need to take it slowly and carefully. This is all new ground for me so patience with myself and our family while attempting this is a must.
so if you can spare a few prayers they would be much appreciated.
Blessings to you and your homes,

The dress pattern is beautiful. I can't wait to see it finished!
Take your time Gae. Begin by making a mock-up of the dress in a very inexpensive fabric. This way, you will be able to get a good fit and then cut into the real fabric with confidence.

Oh Gae, the dress is going to be so gorgeous!!
Autumn will look like a princess in it too!
You are very brave to undertake the sewing of her deb dress..but having mum do it will be so special for her.
I will certainly keep you in prayer my friend :-)
How exciting!!

Dear Gae,
You are very brave to sew such a lovely thing; I will be glad to say a few prayers. It may sound silly, but I always ask for my sewing angel to help me before I start a big project. It goes a lot easier than when I forget!
Love,

I really like this dress pattern. It looks quite beautiful. It reminds me of a wedding gown.
I pray that you will have the patience to do a good job on this dress. I'm sure it will turn-out lovely. I'm hoping that you will share the finished product with us. :)
Such a beautiful dress and yet modest too. I cringe when I see the way some of the girls in the UK dress around prom time.
Will keep you in prayers that all will be well.
