Wow! So in addition to doing "designer" shoes you do designer fashions as well. Renda you are multi talented.

Renda, that's beautiful! You are so multi-talented it is amazing!

That dress is a "keeper". You will all want to save it for future dedications - maybe even for generations to come.

Thanks guys! I'm having a blast making it. This looks big, but I didn't have the back buttoned.

I'm making matching shoes too!
