We decided about 2 months ago that it was time we planned our super secret ceremony. After being engaged in Versaille, France this summer (which we've also kept quite private) we planned a private celebration with our parents and siblings.

This is a great way to upcycle fabric, my students are currently repurposing donated sheets/drop cloth/curtains from a colleague and will join all the squares to make a quilt we will donate to a local shelter.

Altering a recent commissioned design! When a client collaborates on a piece with me, it's important to approach it with finesse and technical precision. Happy with how this turned out and all the techniques I was able to display. For more tips & tricks in Fashion Designing visit my Patreon @designerhelen
