Treadle Make Tuesday: Sarah's Wedding Dress

Every Tuesday we share projects from Treadle Yard Goods employees (a.k.a. The Treadlettes) and our customers and fans!

This week's make comes from Treadlette Elizabeth. Last summer she sewed a wedding dress for her friend Sarah.



Sarah was ready with sketches and a vision for her dress: lots of floaty dark tulle over a gown of pale lavender, with just a little sparkle. A fitted, figure-flattering bodice with loads of swishy skirt and just a little floof!



Supporting some of that floof is a ruffled, tucked petticoat in crisp cotton broadcloth that Elizabeth made to go with the dress. 



This was a big project that took multiple fittings and tweaks to get just right. A wedding dress always feels pretty high stakes, even when it's non-traditional.
