I won this contest with my wedding dress! I was married 12.3.2010, and if you would like to read up about that adventure, the dress Journal is here.

Also in 2010, a dress I made won the costume contest at Dickens on the Strand in Galveston, TX on Dec 4! Missie Matecki (right) is wearing a dress I designed and built for her in the weeks leading up to the event. It also has an evening top.
