Happy Saturday everyone! I've been super busy the last few days, but slipped away from my studio long enough to get my haircut, grab a cup of coffee and a sweet from Panera and send out this post. I feel so far behind in what I want to get done for the upcoming craft fair, but I HAD to get my hair done and who can resist a great cup of joe and a chocolate pastry? Not me!
Anyway, first is a photo of my November Paper Dress for the Alice and Camilla 2010 Dress Challenge. Actually, it is a gold and off-white silk fabric that I have adhered to paper. I embellished the dress with gold and red sticky trim and then I created a sort of "train" for the bottom of the dress. I'm pleased with how it turned out, especially since this is only my second dress.
Sort of looks like a bowling pin now...post editing in Photoshop huh?
Next, is a photo of just a few of my wares I hope to sell at the craft fair next Saturday. I am doing make-up bags, key "fobs," and fabric flower clips (not shown here). I have never sewn for quantity before. I am sure I am not stream lined like a lot of other crafters! I am also positive I shall definitely be diagnosed with carpel tunnel syndrome when I have finished this fair!
A second pastry might make me feel better right?
Toodles for now!

Your dress is lovely. I can't believe this is only your second one. It's so pretty, and a train too!
sweet dress
Your dress is so precious ! Those trims look great defining the shape.
So completely unique! Great idea
I actually like the shape of the dress. It is unique. I like the look you got using the fabric on paper. Nice job with your second dress!
I know I'm late getting here, so I hope your craft show went well.
