finished product

 Well.  I got the dress done.

But it isn't exactly what I planned.

The fabric I chose for the dress was long,

but very short in width.

In other words, it was a strange piece of fabric.

Long and skinny.

So I had to choose different fabric.

It's close to what I intended,,,,,

then the pattern I wanted to use just didn't sing.

 

So, the dress got done with a few

switch-a-roos.

  

In blog-land, you can say whatever you want,

take pictures of the clean parts of your house,

make your kids look like angels,

your pets perfect.......

you can appear to fix supper every night in a 

spiffy-clean kitchen.

You can make sure to take pictures of your clean vehicles,

your family gets up at six,

feeds the chickens by 6:10,

churn the butter,

your favorite things to bake are

sourdough french braided sesame seed bread and scones.

Scones with berries you picked last evening before the meteor shower.

You can have big thick books on the tables,

vases of flowers,

table-cloths on the line......and even horses if you wish.

 

Well, this is reality.

The dress didn't fit quite like I wanted it to.

The fabric is a bit scratchy.

I don't look taller in it and I doesn't make me look ONE bit skinny.

 

But, it did fit, I can wear it,

and I learned some things.

 

So, all was not lost.

I have a dress.

I will do better next time.

If I find the time.......

I have some *bread* I need to make.
