Cutting out dress
with creative weights
(at hand)
to hold down fabric


The dress
"flirty, yet sporty!"
(cheesecloth is the fabric giving its cream-sickle look)
(didn't hem it yet oops!!)
I'm obsessed with vintage zippers
(this on is from the 1940's)





Marilou's birthday present
and birthday dinner

two brooches I made
a vintage gold and silver
chain necklace.
(she is collecting chains right now)
(chain is hard to see but at the bottom of the box)



dinner at amazing
Ethiopian restaurant

Afterwards at a bar I met this lovely Australian lady
Holly Owen who is the the
creative director
of Champagne for the ladies
she liked my dress
and I liked hers
