New Year Preparations

This is Madeline. She is getting her dress ready for the 4th Annual New Year's Day Ball. Besides the general ironing needed, we need to do some hemming and measurement adjustments (with elastic, this is super simple! :) and, for fun, we switched out the old blue sash for a new green sash. 

Madeline's favorite part of the dress is this...

a dress-picker-upper-holder (but we will need to change the color to a lighter green to match her sash). This way, no one will be able to trip on her gown. Oh, the little joys in life. :)

Hope you all had a fantastic Christmas!
