You Wore It Well

Kathleen Barker, 1945

I married my husband Cliff in a satin dress bought from a friend. It had short sleeves so my mother made them longer using fabric from her own lace wedding dress. She also bought a large piece of net for my veil and embroidered a beautiful pattern on the corners. Sadly my husband passed away in 2015 after 70 years of marriage.
