Berg paper dress complete

So here it is, what you've all been waiting for, the finished dress.

Next some of the detail

 Noa came to pick the dress up after I had finished my violin teaching on the bank holiday Monday (there really is no rest for the wicked!) we took it off my dress form Margo and carfully transferred it into the back of Noas car, ready for its journey to Berg, where it will hopefully be modelled and used to promote their fantastic fashion library (as you can see below Jam has his own ideas of a suitable modeling for it...). After it had gone I decided a large glass of red wine was called for before I put the finishing touches to Emma's Jane Austen inspired frock.  

Nuptual bunnies

I can finally post photos of these as my friend Vikki's wedding is over and these were a complete surprise for her. I got approached by Vikki's mum with these two blank bunnies with the challenge to make them into a bride and groom. I chose who was who based on the ears, I thought the one with the ears closest together should be the boy (cause I could put his ears in a top hat) and the other with the ears apart was perfect for the bride. I had loads of material remenants left over from Lisa's wedding dress so used one of those for the bride bunnies dress. The boy bunny was dressed mostly in felt (which was great - so much less hemming). I'd done another small commission for the wedding (adding touches to the shoes for the bridesmaids) so I knew the colours were purple and silver hence the added splashes of colour. Hope she liked them :-)
