Poppy Dress, For A Different Remembrance x

Earlier in the year I met a Mother of the Bride and made three purple bridesmaids dressses, which are on a previous post.  Whilest I was making the dresses, her sister, who had been ill for a short time, sadly passed away before the wedding took place.

On one occassion, whilest bringing a bridesmaid for a fitting she mentioned that there might be another project that she may want me to do.
Before her sister got ill, she had made up the lining for a dress which she had picked out this fabric for but unfortunately had been unable to finish it .

The fabric is just lovely with embroidery and some poppys are attached
She tried on the lining, I did a few alterations , used the lining as the pattern and made up the dress for her . 
It was picked up today, and she loves it. It is obviously very special to her for her own reasons of
remembrance.I felt quite honoured to be asked to be asked to finish it for her
