The Making Of A Wedding Dress - 30 Years Ago

30 years ago I decided to take on a big project. I sewed my own wedding dress. It was the best thing I ever did and it wasn't even that hard. Sewing it myself gave me so much more value than any 'off the rack' wedding dress ever could. It gave it meaning and nostalgia so that years down the road, like now, 30 years later, it can hold memories that money can't buy. I hope this video inspires you to sew your own wedding dress like I did 30 years ago, in 1988 exactly. If you want to learn more about sewing you can go to my website at katfitstitch.com where I talk about my absolutely favorite thing. Sewing!
