One dress - done and dusted!
And....
The Resident Chef appeared in my
sewing room to show me this...
This is a pie-sized butter tart,
due to be gifted to our friend
(who loves the RC's butter tarts)
when we see him tomorrow.
Wonder if he'll eat it all at one sitting?
- Have a peek through the galleries of THIS artist!
- THESE are so pretty and use simple ingredients to create.
- There are lots of free patterns to choose from HERE.
- THIS would be a fun project.
Today's quote...
The dress came out lovely! Worth the effort, I'd say. No set-in sleeves, good idea.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw a pattern without set in sleeves I thought it would be a whole lot easier to create. I still managed to mess it up but at least I didn't have to fuss with gathering sleeves in to fit.
DeleteThe dress is charming! (Thinking abou short sleeves brings a shiver--it's chilly today.) Thanks for the links!
ReplyDeleteIt turned out cute so I'm happy. Just remains to be seen how well it fits her.
DeleteLovely dress you've finished;))) I really like that border on the skirt...and yummy looking tart from RC, too--
ReplyDeletei hope you have a wonderful weekend...hugs, Julierose P.S. and do you get to sample that tart???;)))'
Nope, no sampling of that tart and that's perfectly okay with me because I find them a little too sweet.
DeleteAs for the skirt border I bought a border print and cut it to fit.
It turned out so cute!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy with the end result so we'll see how our grandie likes it.
DeleteI love ❤️ the dress 👗 It is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI like it too!
DeleteSuch a pretty dress. Oh my that is one supersized butter tart.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
The RC decided to play a bit of a joke on our friend with the giant butter tart. I think it was appreciated.
DeleteSherryofcreateology: That is a very sweet dress. Your struggles do not show at all. I always seem to have lots of WIPs…Waiting in Piles surrounding me. I really must learn to FOCUS. But alas I merely love everything and want to do it all. XOXO
ReplyDeleteI'm with you Sherry in wanting to do it all! I never seem to have a shortage of landscape ideas floating around in my brain (you'd think, after doing over 70 of them that I'd be tired of the process.
Deleteyou've got it - now you can make another one!!!
ReplyDeletethat tart looks delicious - and funny ha ha, too - even i got the joke.
Hah - nope - no more dresses for awhile. I can only handle one before I have to go back to having fun.
DeleteThat dress is too cute. I love the border on the skirt. And I've never heard of a butter tart, but imagining it, I'm thinking it's probably very tasty. Luck friend! :)
ReplyDeleteButter tarts seem to be a Canadian thing - I think? They're a little too sweet for me so I don't have one very often.
DeleteThe border on the skirt was part of a panel that I cut to fit.
