Needed a bit of time to relax my brain and have a crafting break. Husband mentioned that i dont sit with him and watch TV anymore coz i am constantly flittering around, doing this and doing that.... so i took some time to just ...be. (mind you just sitting and doing nothing nearly drove me insane, i took me 2 days top be able to just relax and not think about my next project!)
But today....Sunday i needed to CREATE! So here is a preview of my funky dress for my 1970's Dress Up Birthday Party in 3 weeks...
What a funky white collar!! The patterni am using was made in the 1970s the and instructions where extremely vague.... i had some moments where i wanted to give up, but i stuck with it and it looks very funky indeed!
Only a few things left to do, attached the skirt, put in a zip and add some big buttons to the front. It also has little puffy sleevs with a contrasting cuff. I need some knee high white boots now i reckon!
We have started stocking piling alcohol and we also have 3 kegs of home brewed beer, my god, it is going to be a big one......

Oh Katy, it's going to be FABULOUS! You've done so well - good on you! I know exactly what you mean about not being able to just sit and watch TV. The only show I watch is spooks on Monday night and that has my heart racing so much I don't feel like I've been sitting doing nothing!! Thanks for showing your dress - it's fantastic! K
Wow Katy it looks great! I can't wait to see it finished. Sounds like its going to be a great party!
This is looking so superb! I love the fabric you've gone with. Am also a little envious of a figure which will fit into this lovely party frock. I'd have to find something to wear on the other leg...
