A friend of my daughters who's parents backed out of helping with paying for the wedding and left the kid hi and dry.My DD says to her my mom sews!Well we all know quilting is not the same as sewing so I have been living in stressville over this dress.I will post pics when it is done.

I know every situation is unique -& that every story has 2 sides - but what is wrong with people these days??! How does anyone back out on their own child??! How could they face themselves in the mirror each morning?? :thumbdown: :cry: I'm sure the dress will be beautiful! And I'm praying her wedding is too! - truly a dream!
