Lori and her boyfriend, all decked out for the Senior Ball, circa 1972:
She made her gorgeous dress from Simplicity pattern number 5015
The pattern:
And we even have a little fabric swatch, courtesy of her 4-H book:
And, lastly, the pattern back for you:
And a good time was had by all - at "The Ball".
I was there, too!
But I didn't make my dress.
Our high school boyfriends just happened to share the same birthday.
And that would be TODAY.
Happy 59th birthday, guys!

Ah, my little sisters going to the ball. Lori has always been a great seamstress and good at crafts. Thanks so much for showing these photos! And happy birthday guys! Love T
Love the photo!! Cute couple!! I had a very similar style dress that my mom made for me. I wore it to a piano recital!
Those were the days!!!!! Loved the 70's!!!!!!
This looks so much like a dress my Mom made for me!!
How neat! And how great to have a swatch of the fabric. Must bring back lots of memories!
It's a beautiful dress... so 70's, so cute.
She only looks about twelve years old. Ha!
