You are such a wonderful friend! You made her such beautiful things.

Everyone looks spectacular! I love Lolita style-- some of those Japanese girls take it crazy far and are pure $$$$ perfection head to toe. Outstanding!

You look beautiful!

Thank you! This was my first real experience with Lolitas, so I was surprised (in a good way) at all the costuming.

Some of the costumes they do are so exquisite, and so so expensive! Like couture! Some head to to outfits cost many thousands-- and some of the dolls alone they carry are thousands. They don't consider it costume at all-- it's just clothes to them! Every day!

You look lovely! And how nice to sew for a friend.

I'm glad some of that silk became useful. I'm pretty sure that one is Robert Kaufman's Radiance, fwiw. Your bag is adorbs!

Thank you! Chris is great to sew for. She just lets me make her whatever I want and then she pays me for it. She loved the bag too, and I still have enough of that Radiance left to make another if I want.
