@jay_1965vw that gown is gorgeous! Now I have to beg the question. Do you want to go heirloom-y and have one just for Dot or are you after something more simple to “get the job done”. Do you want embroidery, smocking etc?

I would do a natural fibre, even though I am not really familiar with Queensland weather in September but I can imagine that…[Read more]
