Pretty Please Make Me Pretty!

It is lovely having a sister-in-law in the dress making business. Particularly when it comes time to get hitched. My wedding is coming up on February 25th (less than 3 weeks away, yikes!) and being the wonderful sister-in-law that she is Anja agreed to my last minute request to make a dress for me. I have had my first fitting - the lovely prototype, muslin version of the dress got all pinned up in the right places. But then it happened…

I had a dream! A horrible dream that my dear brother and sister-in-law decided they did not like the dress design that I picked and that they needed to spice it up a bit. In this dream I met with them for the second fitting when they pulled out this dark purple, forest green, and white tie-dyed dress that was straight and too short and had slits up both sides and a little knot tied in the middle of the chest. Not exactly my idea of a wedding dress! I guess maybe I am getting the final countdown, crazy, bridezilla madness dreams.

At any rate, when I complained to Anja this morning about being so nasty in my dream, she promised that she would never be so cruel and that I will be lovely, white (with a yellow sash) and strapless as requested. I am certain she will make good on her promise. Stay tuned for pictures to prove it!
