ONE BRIDESMAID DRESS

So I completed the dress, not a mean feat when you think I didn't actually do anything apart from sew on the roses but it looked so different my mother-in-law didn't recognise it as the dress she purchased! So here are a few pictures and steps on what I did.

So this is the dress as we bought it, it just looked a little plain!


These are the roses that were already attached.

I removed the roses carefully on both sides, leaving the stitching & bow intact so the dress would not lose the pleats.

I then hand-sewed the rose bouquets on the dress over the bows.

This is the final product, a dress that got compliments all day, with people asking where I purchased it.
