Crochet Inspiration

This gorgeous dress was handmade by the bride in three weeks! From the original blog post:
“Jillian made her own dress, including the pattern for it. She deconstructed a vintage dress to create a pattern for the bodice (the green part); sewed that, and then crocheted doilies madly for three weeks straight. She used over two miles of crochet yarn. Apparently they were still working on the dress the morning of the wedding (!) and Jillian had to be sewn into it, Project Runway style.”
Now if this dress is not inspiration worthy of motivating me to improve my crochet skills, I don’t know what is! It also inspires me to create a skirt out of the many vintage doilies I have collected over the years. I can practice single chaining them together!
