I must work better under pressure???



Well Thursday I found out that we would be attending a 70's party for a relative's 40th bday on Saturday.  I had the perfect material, but I just had to find the perfect pattern.  And I found that in McCalls 5621 . This is the fastest I have ever completed any project.  The dress from the wedding took me like a month (due to several fabric & pattern changes).  But here are some pics of me in the dress & also my husband in his outfit.

I love this dress & although it worked perfectly for a 70's party, it can totally be paired with different shoes (& minus the "fro")  & be wearable.

Peace. Hills

I'm still here. I've just been catching up on some much needed rest since we made it back from DC. We went up for my favorite cousin's wedding, which was beautiful; and also a much needed time away from my babies. It was great!!! I finished my dress which was M5845. I used a "summer" tweed that I found @ Joanns.  It was very easy to make, even 4 a "super" beginner like myself. Here are pictures of it on my 'manni' & on me.
Peace. Hills
