This is the second time I've made this dress. I LOVE it!
 

Fabric:

Cotton Jersey  [See other projects in this fabric]

Pattern Description: Wrap front dress has soft pleats, side tie, and sleeve variations. Dress B has collar. Pattern Sizing: 8-14 I made the 14 Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? yes Were the instructions easy to follow? YES!! Very! What did you particularly like  or dislike about the pattern? I love this pattern! I think this will become my TNT wrap dress. Fabric Used: Cotton Jersey from Textile Fabrics in Nashville Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made: NONE Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I've already made this dress once for a cruise I went on earlier this year and this will NOT be my last time making it. Conclusion: FANTASTIC pattern.

That is all for me! Have a fabulous Sunday!

Healthy Textures A Review

Ok, No podcast today. They will be back at the first of the year. I have a lot already recorded, and I have some great things planned so yay!

I will however leave you with the last Blog Spotlight for 2007!!!!

Drum Roll Please........

PHOTODEE

Now, this young lady has a FAB blog. Not only is she a knitter, but she is an AWESOME photographer. Go by and check her out today. Her blog posts really make you think!!!

Today I am going to do a review, and it's not a very good one, but I believe in letting you guys know MY opinion about stuff....good and not so good.

I've been following this blog Healthy Textures for a while now. I decided, sometime not long ago (maybe right before my diagnosis)  to start taking care of my own hair. To release myself from the bondage of the salon. NOW, nothing wrong with going to the salon, but, well you know.  I've always maintained my hair inbetween salon visits, but I wanted to do all of my hair care. So I started reading this blog, just going through ALL the information. Making notes, reading, reading, reading. Don't get me wrong it's a GREAT site, BUT, the trouble started when she introduced the DVD pictured below.

Now, while it is a great video, and the total cost with shipping was only a little over $20.00, I feel it was a waste of money. The lady that did the videos has a small series of videos on youtube. You can view them
HERE. Now the thing that got me, was you can see EVERYTHING on youtube, that is on the dvd with the exception of the rollersetting part. Maybe I thought the dvd would be more, but it says that it is a rollersetting DVD, but the rollersetting section is very short. Like I said. Everything else can be seen on youtube. FOR FREE. lol

So don't waste your money, just go check out youtube.

GOT A HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE SOON! NO I AM NOT PREGNANT LOL. But well, it's huge to me! LOL

Ok, so umm, not much more going on, still organizing, getting rid of....but it's all good stuff. I'll show pics as soon as everything is complete.

Been feeling kinda blah. Had a big pity party yesterday but I cried for a while and got over it.

Been sleeping a lot, if you've emailed me, I'm getting to them.

Kids are PAST ready for Christmas. Aj asks me EVERYDAY if he can open his gifts yet...NO YOU CAN'T.

That's it you guys have a great day!!!
