So here is the blessing dress I made for the Springer's little girl. B. was one of my young women. She married in the temple to a fabulous returned missionary!! And now they have a beautiful little girl.
When we had Sun, I wanted to make her a blessing dress, but with all of her older brothers, trying to do so just wasn't even a possibility. Needless to say, Heavenly Father knew of my wishes and my heart's desire. He prompted my favorite aunt to make one for me. I cried and cried because it was exactly the way I would have wanted it, style, material and all. Plus it came from someone who is extremely important to me. (Thanks Janelle :-)
Now I have had the opportunity to 'pay it forward!!' The Springer's were in the process of moving and having a baby and choosing law school all within weeks of each other. So I had the fortune and ability to make one for them.
What a joy!! I had so much fun sewing that I just couldn't put it down and every time I picked it up, it was all I could do to stop and take care of my family. But I did manage to balance things. Anyway, Congratulations my dear friends!! I had a ton of fun making such a beautiful item and I hope it works for what you need.
You probably didn't need so many views, but I wanted you to be able and see the pattern work in the dress.
Soooooo much fun!!
