Oh how striking, Sharon! And I just love the "nutty" photo.

Really pretty, both the girl and the dress. Congratulations!

Erm... You haven't seen the state of mine this week! :D I think I need to do it first, seeing as we have guests again next weekend!

You've outdone yourself this time, Sharon! Absolutely beautiful girl and dress! Emily

Thank you everyone for all your kind words. Sorry for the blanket response rather than individuals. Getting ready to go help DH dig up the stump that was left when the pear tree blew down last summer. At least I will be outside instead of in cleaning the sewing room. heh heh

She had a marvelous time at the dance. As she walked in the door, I heard one of the female teachers (one who is just a whole lot of fun!) yell "whooo-hoooo!!! Look at you!!!" Then she said the other teacher working the door told her how marvelous she looked and that she was thrilled to pieces to see a girl dressed in something classy and not "over accessorized." And by the way, she picked the pattern, the fabric and the accessories. :) I had to laugh at her petting the dress on the way out the door last night. ;)

Oh! This week was also the spring band concert. Missy Miss was awarded the "Most Improved Musician" trophy. She had no clue she was going to get it. Was so much fun to see her face when the band director called her name after saying how hard the winner had worked and what a lovely young woman the winner is. ;) (Mama has to brag sometimes y'know. lol)

Thanks again! So much fun to have all of you to share these projects with. Gotta go digging in the dirt now.

Sharon, your daughter is lovely, and she looks like a barrel of fun too...what a great combination! I loved being the mom of 2 teenage daughters (now 42 and almost 40). Enjoy - they grow up too fast!
