Night Sky Ogden Tier Dress
Hi all, I thought it was time for another sewing make on the blog. This is a dress I started when summer just rolled around, finished by the end of summer when we were moving towards autumn, and photographed in earlier autumn. Now finally it […]
Black and Gold Shirt Dress
