Productive day...


This what I have worked on all day and I got 'er done!
This little number is the first dress of quite a few that I am making for a little spring wardrobe surprise. I have never sewed on rick rack before and I had to hand stitch all of it on. I think that was the most time consuming bit about the whole venture.

My little space is totally broke
in now. I even put together a Happiness Is _ kit from Kristina Contes. I love it! I bought it sometime last year and never got to it. Now I've just got to get some pictures in the album. I'm going to use "08 pictures.

And... this is how I spent my day off. I'm happy!

Lisa, that dress (esp. the fabric) is too cute for words! I think hand-sewing the rick rack was a good idea. Love, Sasha
