    WOW, I literally typed “I made a ballgown” into the search bar to find pleating techniques to make this dress the way I imagine it and I clicked on your first and NO JOKE we chose THE SAME FABRIC! I’m absolutely obsessed! Earlier today I even went back to buy more so I could make a snap-on/optional hood for the dress I’m making and a bonus mini skirt thanks to my friend Sonny who recommended it!

    Sweetheart, not everybody is ever going to love whatever it is at that moment we’re talking about. You can’t and won’t ever please everyone! Plus, everyone isn’t who you should be trying to please. As long as you love it and are happy in whatever you’re doing then that is what is most important!! ❤ And if you love it I guarantee you that others will too. This dress is absolutely gorgeous!!!
