I am hardly likely to forget this date
My Dad died on this day. That many years ago I can't remember.
Its our dear friends Golden Wedding anniversary today
and another friend is celebrating her 80th Birthday.
You see this vintage curtain, well I got it some years ago and upto recently it has been used as a cover for the cushion on the bench in our boot room (the place we store our wellies and coats)
But now it has been transformed into a summer frock for me, by another one of my friends.
With the bits that are left I have made some lavender bags
and a bag for the lavender bags
There is no way I can wait until the summer months before I wear my new frock
so once its dry (it was full of mud and needed washing) I am going to team it with
maroon opaque tights and maroon knee length boots and my tricel dusky pink cardi.
Stay tuned for further pics with me modelling it
I made this for the Golden couple at the party tonight.
We are dashing from one do to another so I better get a move on.
Hope you have a fab time tonight. Can't wait to see you modelling the dress :-)
