I've been wanting to sew and make a dress. Here's a picture of my work in progress. it took two days to get this far. Now I just need to sew it together. It's hard to make a dress without a cloth tape measure and tailor chalk. Hopefully those will come in the mail soon. I also need to order some mulsin. I realize it's very difficult to design a dress without the muslin to make the pattern. Grandma Margaret might pick some up at JoAnn's.


Today we went to a parade for Fasching. We met up with our friends Selma and Stephen and their son Etan. Fasching is kind of like Mardi Gras German style. we had a lot of fun. The kids got some candy and it was neat to watch the parade! It's the same time every year. They would shout 'HAYLO' to get candy. Very funny!


We have AFN hooked up to watch TV in English. Very excited about that. We are watching SNL now, however I think it's an old episode. Watched a little bit of new for the first time in about 3 months. I realized that I didn't really miss it. There is just so much bad news out there that it can drive one crazy.
Love the dress! I see Luna found a candy "teeter" or is that a real one? Love that she has a princess dress on over her coat! did a lot of kids dress up for the parade? Looks like fun! I went scrapbooking all weekend! Got 29 pages done! LOVE YOU!!
ReplyDeleteYour dress looks great,Like Luna dressed in her princess dress, is that Josiah with the Spider mask on and Elee has a great smile, glad he is feeling better. Going to JoAnn's tomorrow to see about getting muslin and elastic,
