Making the flower girls dresses for my wedding.
Hand sewn, because my sewing machine is broken at the moment.

2 tutu skirts = 6$
Lace edging around = 4$
The lace on the body of dress was left over from my veil making.
Silk Ribbon for back of dress was left over from pack of ribbon I bought for $3 to make my garter.
Pink backing behind the lace was from a pink scarf I got for $2.
Inside underlining was scraps salvaged from a dress I'm fixing.

All in all I think the dresses I'm making will have cost me 20$ or less. Where purchasing them would have cost me $20 per dress. Time to make it, may a day or so plus, but I have lots of time to spar these days.

One dress down, another one to go.

Just ended up enjoying being last drifting around the corners. :P My hands hurt after and arms hurt. My arms were pretty short for the steering wheel and legs were too short for the pedals - that the guy who worked there had to adjust the pedals for me. Before that I was shopping for some T-shirts to make for the upcoming trip. and before that - work - was tedious trying to up...
