…(hopefully) recognise yourself in at least one of these:
If you trusted me to design and make your wedding dress, veil or part of your outfit this year;
If you chose me to restyle or alter your dress;
If you collaborated with me on a styled shoot, design, blog or magazine feature;
If you liked, shared or commented on my a post, story, or reel, or tagged me in yours;
If you recommended me to a friend, wrote a review or followed me;
If you saved my sanity when a pattern draft/embroidery machine/tax return threatened it (again);
If you sent me your wedding pictures showing you in something I made, or dropped me a message just to say you liked my work;
If you sold me a beautiful fabric, some sparkling beads, or the badass embroidery machine that cost six times more than my car;
If you sent me a card, flowers, chocolates or pins with heads shaped like bats;
If you entertained/fed/tolerated my children so I could put the extra time into my work;
If you are either of my children and told me you loved me;
If you helped me set up, pack up, ferry my gear or cut the breeze at a wedding fair;
If you taught me a new sewing technique, design trick or social media idea;
If you made me laugh until it hurt, let me cry until I felt better or at any point made me a cup of tea,
Thank you. You filled my heart, you made my year.
