I have recently returned from a vacation in Northern California, which was motivated by my brother-in-law’s wedding. The wedding was fantastic, and the trip was delightful, and there will be more about that in an upcoming blog post. In the meantime, I wanted to tell you about the dress I made for the wedding. I only have one brother-in-law (and his fiancée–now wife–is awesome), so I figured his wedding was a good occasion for some special attire. It also motivated me to try out a pattern that I was a little intimidated by, partially because it was a Vogue pattern and partially because the bodice construction appeared to be somewhat confusing.
