Tanya Maile Hughes blogs at tanyamaile.com and she recently hosted a wonderful sewing challenge called Dress Like Your Grandma. She encouraged readers to find a photo of their grandmother, aunt, cousin, any relative really, and then to create an outfit similar to the one shown in the photo. The time frame for the contest was originally March 6th to April 17th and anyone who wanted to sew could participate. I did not see read about the contest until April 15th, but Tanya ended up extending the challenge through April 24th and I was able to get an entry submitted.
While going through family pictures with my mom, we landed upon a picture of my aunt wearing her bridesmaid's dress from my mother and father's wedding. I had made a dress very similar to that one and I decided to recreate that picture.
Here is a link to Tanya's blog where she has some fantastic photos and descriptions for all of the entries she received for the challenge. Thank you for hosting, Tanya. This was a fun project!
