Marfy pattern adventure f1122 January

Time has passed quickly and I have been busy. After the wedding came Thanksgiving. My daughter came home from college. Then there was the Christmas season and all the activities that go with that. My daughter went back to school yesterday and it seems quiet today. I want to take the time to post the dress I made for my step daughter wedding. Here is the final product.


I also made here the ring bearer pillow. It wasn't what she wanted but what she wanted was not possible. She wanted me to embroider Mickey and Minnie on the pillows. Everyone liked it but the bride.

Another project that I have been working on was a period dress for volunteering at the local National park. I made the dress earlier in the year but as the weather got colder I needed a cover up to go with it. I also enjoy spinning and had spun some natural gray wool so I knit it up into a shaw.
