Hi!

I made this dress last week from the Elegant Lady’s Closet Pattern. It was fun to make and felt elegant and comfortable to wear.
Now one of my younger sisters wants me to make her a Girl’s Regency dress or Girl’s Georgian Era Dress (when the pattern comes out!). Thanks for designing these lovely patterns!

Thank you for sharing your fantastic work, Jenna! This is absolutely wonderful. I really like the cotton print you found. And what a lovely day for photographs!

    Very pretty! I love the fabric, too. The lacy sash really sets the dress off. :)

    I think your dress really complements the sweet spirit of the girl who pieced it together.
    I totally enjoy watching your talents bloom.
