I found this awesome pink circled designed fabric at our local second hand store for $.50 (to the right of the drawing). I saw it and knew that I wanted to make a prom dress out of it! I don’t think Bella was very fond of pink or anything that would draw attention to her, but she didn’t want to go to prom anyway, so I thought the bright fabric would fit perfect with occasion…since she was going to be noticed anyway. The dress would have an underlying base of the pink circled fabric and then have a sash skirt and v neck top of black satin. The skirt would be full and very fun to dance in. It would be one continuous dress with no line to define the waist. Very sleek, clean and elegant.

I had a blast designing it other than I realized I really have no drawing skills :) ! My 6th grade art teacher was right all those years ago…drawing isn’t one of my strengths! ;)
