Shawna used my Regency Gown pattern for her wedding gown and the bridesmaids. She writes, I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for your wonderful pattern. I own a lovely 1900 Victorian home, and we were going to be married in a church that was built in 1885, so, of course, we [...]

And the chemisette is made based on your instructions as well. Thanks for a lovely pattern! Thank you [...]
