New Dress...

Friday night... went shopping with a friend, went for a walk, watched the debate, and altered an old pattern to make this new little dress. This is absolutely my favorite fabric... I have curtains made out of it, pillow cases, a headband, and a wallet (a little excessive, I know). And yes, I should be packing, or cleaning, or doing something related to the upcoming move... but I think that creating this new dress to wear to Oktoberfest tomorrow is just what the doctor ordered. Just need to find some buttons, put in the zipper, and I will be ready to go. 

It's just amazing what you find when you move...

It really is... I came across this relic while I was packing today. It was given to me as a birthday gift by a very dear friend many years ago. I had it hanging on my vanity mirror initially but when I had trouble finding anything to wear it with, it retreated to a dresser drawer where it has stayed for several years now. I was so delighted to discover it again this afternoon, as well as the memories that go along with it.

Okay, back to packing...
