I’m making my own dress! Any other brave Diyers?

Valencia, on August 16, 2019 at 4:00 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 3 24
So i am getting married 19 June 2021 and I have decided to design and sew my own wedding dress. I have already started working on it and estimate it to take me about a year to fully finish (less if I didn’t have kids and a job lol)... anyone else tackling this task??

    Thank you. I always wanted a princess style gown but never could find one that I really liked which is what led me to making my own.

    Your sketch is beautiful! I can’t wait to see how this comes out! I don’t even know how to sew so I couldn’t do this if I wanted to 😬

    I think this is amazing and your design looks absolutely beautiful!! I have no sewing skills whatsoever so I could never pull this off. Can’t wait to see the progress.

    Looking good! Are you sewing it directly to the hoop skirt?
