And thats a wrap for the wedding dress alterations 😞
My last bride Stephanie collected her dress today for her wedding this weekend, it's so lovely having someone who's family that I did alterations for their weddings over the years, from I had the bridal shop 🥰 .
Then after a day visting my dad in the royal, I arrived home to these beautiful flowers from Stephanie.🥰

I will have a post up over the next few weeks, once I get my head together, about the sale for accessories, fabrics, motifs and machinery.

Any October, November and December brides, that have not booked their 1st fitting appt, Can you please send a message :)

Hello everyone,

As many of you already know, I will be retiring from sewing this December, after completing my final bridal gown in the New Year. With this in mind, I am no longer able to take on any new bookings for weddings or formal wear.

I will, however, be holding a clearance sale on all remaining stock, including fabrics, appliqués, headpieces, jewellery, and other bridal and communion accessories.

Dressmakers, be sure to keep an eye out for upcoming stock posts—it’s a great opportunity to add to your collection. And if you have a shop, this could be a wonderful chance to expand into accessories.

Thank you all for your support over the years!
Elaine
