To see Part 1 … the sketch and the sewing of the dress, click here.
So on Monday night, Frit and I joined Ella and her family on Temple Square in Salt Lake City so I could take pictures of her in her new dress. There aren’t many things more lovely than the Spring flowers on Temple Square. It’s really one of my favorite places. And just before sunset? Be still my heart.
Isn’t she positively lovely?

Well. Ella’s baptism dress is finished and I love it. Love it, love it, LOVE it! Seriously it was one of my favorite projects to ever work on and the result made me squeal with delight.
Here’s where the dress began … an idea in my head and the resulting sketch:
And here is the dress that came of it:
When Ella put it on, you’d have thought I’d dubbed her queen of the world. You could see it in her eyes that she was certain she was the most beautiful belle ever. And that made every stitch worth it.
I’ll be back later to post the pictures I took of her in her special dress.
