DAUGHTERS OF ISIS BALL
Many of you all know I am a member of the Daughters of Isis. And I go to a few balls….not as many as I could but I attend my fair share…..Any who…I have another ball next weekend July 31st. And of course it is the age old dilemma what am i going to wear?!
I started making my own whites because we can only buy so many dresses from David’s Bridal….not that there is any thing wrong with DB but I dont want to look like the next woman so I make my own….
As I found out in June that my white dress I made a few years ago that was a bit too small when I made it is now too big *sigh* So I need to whip up another outfit and quick…I have a bolt of crepe back satin at home so what ever I make will be out of that material….. so here are a few of my options of what i am thinking of….
This is Butterick Pattern 5419 I have shown this one before, I like the plain tank top which I can embellish with some lace on the bottom I would pair it with this skirt that I have had my eye on for a few years….
This is Vogue Pattern V2810 I LOVE LOVE LOVE this skirt I have wanted to make it for years but didnt want the corset top to go with it..I think the Butterick top above would go nicely with this. *I love trains if you could not tell*
OOOOORRRRR I have this pattern at home also but it would take a bit of altering because i am not feeling the little straps on it i want something like a tank strap…..
This is Vogue Pattern V2065 I love this dress but I want a bigger strap…it has an over top that goes with it but I do not have time to make that….I might use the bodice from another dress to make that….hummmmmm I have to see….so my Curvy Girls…what do you think?
Love Peace and All Things Pretty
