Using what you've got...

No, I'm not talking about my womanly wiles, I'm talking about unused fabric of course!

I have had this fabric in my arsenal for a very long time.  Every time I do a purge, I tell myself, "Cat, this will make a pretty dress one day - keep!  Also, Cat, you are a terrific gal."  It usually goes something like that.

So, I made a quick summer dress with an elastic waist, really playing upon the pretty striped edge this fabric already had and I think it came out pretty cute, what do you think?






Now, to install the AC in the sewing room.  Wish me luck...or Chris - wish him luck.
