I know it’s been a very long pause from my side. It has been a challenging time, but we have so much to be thankful for. Mom’s oncologist switched her to chemo two weeks ago to speed the shrinkage of the tumors, and her hair has begun to fall out. She em… instagr.am/p/CIERKH-A09q/

Two years ago today I was doing the final fittings on the suit for this beautiful young woman in South Africa. Krystal radiated light and warmth like few other people I have ever met. We connected through our shared faith, and her joy bubbled and overflo… instagr.am/p/CBnxvvHA4Q_/

Signing off until later next week for a much-needed family break. With all that's going on, it is easy to overlook the needs of our children. I don't want to miss this time to focus on them, answer their questions, and speak into their hearts. Take care,… instagr.am/p/CA1nv6bg3-R/

This is the stuff of dreams! @la_serraspina made this glorious gown worthy of a LeBrun portrait from my 1780s pattern, adding extra skirt panels for a super full and fluffy look. Go check her stories for the video clip and more of this breathtaking scene… instagr.am/p/CAsZUdOgd6X/

I have photographed this dress every time I've visited the @vamuseum in London. When I was 16 years old, I sat and sketched it. So when @sarcenetandlace_cosplay posted to ask about using my 1914 Afternoon Dress pattern to make one for herself, my little … instagr.am/p/CAia5xTgyAU/

It's #FamilyPhotoFriday, and here are my husband's maternal great-grandparents, circa 1920. I just love that they are basically posing in the rose bramble. When my hubby was in his early 20s, he was a dead ringer for his great-grandfather. People used to… instagr.am/p/CANzldwgwiH/
