A Dress For a Dance




My youngest daughter Tess attended the winter dance at her school several months ago and wanted me to sew her a dress to wear. Even though I made my wedding dress about 21 years ago, I have to admit that I haven't sewn clothes too often since the kids were a lot younger. I really enjoy sewing home decorating projects...just not clothes! So needless to say, my first thought was to tell Tess no and instead go dress shopping with her. But her heart was set on it so I did eventually agree. Tess chose the fabric/pattern and I got to work. The dress turned out nicely and Tess was happy. We even made a rosette pin and matching hair accessory! 


Thanks for looking,
~Michelle :)

    That's sweet that she wanted you to make her a dress. Most kids would want the opposite these days! It turned out so well - she looks beautiful!

    I have realized that car insurance organizations know the autos which are liable to accidents
    and also other risks. Additionally they know what sort of cars are inclined to
    higher risk as well as higher risk they've the higher your premium amount. Understanding the easy basics onnected with car insurance can help you choose the right sort of insurance policy that could take care of your preferences in case you happen to be involved in an accident. Appreciate your sharing a ideas on your blog.

    Small women are believed to find it more complicated to use fat than larger women
    as they have got a smaller calorie need. What you should do is
    to focus or target a particular group of muscle for once or even twice a week.
    This can be achieved by adding more weight, increasing the number of
    repetitions, or by adding on additional sets.

    People sometimes tend to think, “if only I were a celebrity, everything would
    be better”. It’s interesting how stars
    get annoyed when the paparazzi takes pictures of
    them. He covers gossip on celebrities, actors and musicians.
