one project down, one to go

Finished taking in and hemming my bridesmaid dress for Tom and Katy's wedding. Seeing how I was the backup emergency bridesmaid, I didn't get to go through all the fittings and such. In fact, I got an unfitted, unhemmed dress on Tuesday. Dress was a size 10. They couldn't find a size 8 that they could get to us before the wedding. I am not a size 10, at least not in the top half of my body. I ended up taking a good 4 inches out of the thing diameter wise. Now I have a shape when I wear it and the shape is not just rumply. Its a lovely gown, though, and very fitting for a winter wedding.

Now to start on Katy's commission. I have ideas. I have an airbrush and paint. I even went out in the early morning snow to get a HUGE watercolor block so I have a canvas to work on . I just need to do the time consuming layout and masking off of things and get Katy to okay an initial design.

oh yeah, YAY! SNOW!
