last week this incredible and very talented lady passed away and dozens of lds girls in wa felt the world grow a little dimmer. erica shortland made hundreds of dresses over the years, my wedding and bridesmaid dresses included.
all of the dresses in this picture other than my flower girl lauras (which was made by my mum) were made by this amazing lady. she managed to make so many, to all be exactly what we wanted and always made them happen, no matter the time restraints, your budget and how many you needed. she was quite simply a magician.
not only that, she was so incredibly kind. in the fifteen years i have known her, she has always found the time to say hello and ask how i am, even in the last few years when her voice hadn't been as strong as it once was.
i loved this dress and the lady who spent hours making it for me. she was just a wonderful lady and i will certainly miss seeing her at the landis get-togethers we are often invited to.
thank you for my dress dear sister shortland.
i will be eternally grateful.
