Lovely dress... (I use sewing for therapy too, and I hope that time heals your wounds.)

Beautiful dress and story to go with it. Some of my ancestors were those rough settlers!

LOVE your fabric! I just made a dress with vintage saris too and it offered quite a few challenges as well. Beautiful but not the easiest to work with for sure

Very pretty! Quite delicate and feminine and so beautifully finished. I do hope things are better for you now

I think the dress is beautiful and I can completely relate to your personal story, having used sewing myself as therapy after the earthquake. And the story is heartbreaking...Bon courage!

Beautiful dress! I love the delicate fabric and details. I know exactly what you mean by sewing being a comfort during hard times. What a blessing the hobby is! Your dress is really lovely, and I enjoyed your story about the beautiful creations made in the dark Quebec winter.

My friend gave me some of her retired saris. I find it helpful to learn how you handled the silk with self lining and organza interfacing.
