PROMS!

Whewwww!  While I was piecing gowns, March and April flew by!  It was a great sense of accomplishment to actually finish the dresses.  As in the past five years, I was working on my daughter's gown as her very patient date AND his parents sat and waited.  These  hands of mind definitely require more time....lots more time! LOL!   As Shakespeare says, "Alls well that ends well"....or  something like that!  Pictures posted along the sidebar of the blog! 

I've got lots of updates to do and will get them done by weeks end.  I won a prize from SewCalGal!  Thanks Darlene!  Got some wonderful fabrics from hancocks-paducah.com, lovely Fasset and Laura Gunn prints from Spool - just have to stop and say what a wonderful store this is.  If you get the chance, it is a store you simply must visit!  Also got some lovely yarns from Loop - right next door to Spool!   Thanks Laura for your assistance!

"Pinky", a Travel doll has arrived!  She is gorgeous!  Pics later....  Thanks Denise! 

Not sure if I've forgotten anything; but I will post some pics later this week!

For now, here is a pic of the three dresses.....um, I mean the girls wearing the dresses I made!!!  lol...
