    You Rock! You are amazing and doing a fantastic job ♥️♥️♥️

    FYI: what's wrong with a black and blue color blocking? I think it would be very cool and put a contemporary twist on the dress.

I almost didn’t complete this part of the project and I actually had to pull up a youtube video of birds outside and blast my music so loud my ears rang to distract me from how depressing it was to sit in the dark and do the worst ...
