for my 40th anniversary, i used the knit fabric of my wedding dress as the under layer for a night sky alabama chanin ish. i, too don’t wear long dresses much any more but it has been fun to bring out on special occasions.

My dress, with it's wrinkles and odd stain, sits in a box longing to be an art project like a box of crayons that haven't been used. I love what you're doing here. I think my embroidering days are behind me, though, who knows? Perhaps opening the box, pulling the dress into the light, and sitting with it for a time will elicit creative motion. Thank you for the inspiration, Lyz
