Well I finished the dress, about an hour before the party started!  It was a tough pattern, I don't think I would try it again.  Overall I think it turned out pretty good, I added a belt because there was just to much material and the gathers weren't as tight as they maybe should of been.  I forgot to get a picture of the front and back, but I have a few taken throughout the night.  It was a super fun party for my little sister, Scarlett and her fiancé, Dan, celebrating there engagement.  They are perfect together!

Here is a shot of the dress with some of my family- it was really good to see almost everyone.  It's been a while!! 

Here is my handsome man, he dresses up very nice!

It was a fun night, the dress was a success.. and I have to say, my parents can throw a really fun party!!
