Remy's muses - Productivity at last!

Help...I need somebody...Help!

As some of you may know, Remy and I have set the date to go to the temple! We are so excited and are looking forward to it very much. I have waited for this day FOREVA! Remy and I will become a forever family and I love him more for it.

All these feelings of happiness and excitement are also accompanied by STRESS. Stress= emotional eating+ break outs, which has been super fun. In an effort to save us some money I have decided to make the dress I will be wearing to the temple and for pictures after. 

Now I know what you are thinking,"Are you insane? Make your own dress?" Apparently I am. I have been warned about how hard it's going to be but I don't have much of a choice. The dress I want is not really in style at the moment nor could I afford it if it was. I do have a recommendation for a wonderful seamstress but I'm afraid to call and find out how much a dress would be, because I don't even know where to begin.

This is how far I got before I got overwhelmed and closed the door.

Yup 48 days left and all I've done is opened the pattern. I think I need more chocolate! 

So anyone handy with a sewing machine that is dying to spend hours helping me make a complicated dress? *Just a note, I'm not very good company right now so that should sweeten the deal, no?*
