OT We're done, Jo and Susan next

Thank you for the update, Polly. I am sure the fact that her Grandma sewed
those many pearls made the veil very precious to the bride. She will tell
that story for many years. Blessings to the newly wed couple, and to you and
your Mister, too.

Proud to report that our granddaughter's wedding to-do was oh so lovely
and sweet and so far as I know, everyone survived. Profound heart-felt
thank you to you for your good wishes and prayers.
The veil - all 10 yards - that I hand hemmed and pearl edged was just
right.
The flower girl basket and ring bearers pillow were both pretty and
indestructible. (I have a heap of experience with indestructible.)
The bride was very grateful for the bling studded flip-flops I made for
when her bride shoes got pinchy.
The gown that Mr. Esther and I hemmed, pressed and managed to get to
the church unscathed was lovely.
Certainly more than enough about me. That was the sweetest wedding
we've ever been part of and the reception was obviously wonderful.
Something that so touched our hearts - the bride's daddy (our son)
didn't just 'offer the bride his arm' as they came down the aisle, he also
reached across to hold her hand. Lots of tears and laughter in the
ceremony and so beautiful.
NOW ! we can move on with other events such as Thanksgiving,
Christmas, Jo having a baby and Susan being mother of the groom.
I'm b - a - c - k. Polly
