Egad!

So after pondering for a couple of days, I have decided what I want to do for my senior project. In my first blog, I mentioned that I wanted to do quite a few things, and I definitely want to sew something.
My boyfriend's sister is getting married in a couple of months, and she has two little daughters, who I would imagine would be the flower girls. So then I thought to myself "why not sew a flower girl dress?" My mind was set on that for a while.
My research paper had to be something relevant to my product, so I thought, "well flower girls are used at weddings--ceremony--marriage!" Marriage would be the perfect topic. So I dug a little deeper. I can interview couples who have been married over 5 years, and how their life changed, and the commitment it really takes to go through with it.
"I should make a bride's dress." Something simple, yet cute. What can also be included in my research paper, is SIMPLICITY. How you don't need to stroll down the aisle in a $50,000 dress. It doesn't need to be super fancy, but comfortable. In movies, I've seen girls do anything to buy the most glamorous dress. I don't think it's about that. Sure the dress is important, but it's not the most important. On your wedding, I bet you're already stressed enough with everything going according to plan, you don't need to be uncomfortable the whole ceremony.
So right now, that's what I'm thinking about.

I still need a mentor, hopefully tomorrow I can go look for one, probably at a bridal shop. HOPEFULLY.
