Cheryl that dress has "Style" stamped all over it!

Christy-- I think you have Yoli on the mind. And you did her proud.

You can just call me Donna Reed.

Here are the two dresses I made tonight. I had to go find some wire of the proper gauge for the hangers, too...I have some tiny buttons, but no needle that I can thread to go through their holes, and my Crystal Effects just soaked through the felt, so I couldn't glue them on. Guess I need to use them on paper projects, instead of fabric.

I received both of my button dresses in the mail this past week. What treasures they are!

Christy's (on the right) had a button incident in the mail, but I found a similar red one and glue-dotted it on as a replacement. What you probably can't see in the photos of this gem is that the buttons around the waist have been colored with alcohol inks. How cool is that!

Paula's (on the left) is a low-cut marvel; luckily it has some of those little ribbon straps to hold it on the hanger! It also appears to have a working belt with a wicked belt buckle, but I'm not going to open it, since I am belt-challenged.

They are lovely, and if I had a really narrow rod in my closet, they would be hanging already. One of these days, I'll have to make some sort of really cool shadow box to hold all the wonderful one-for-one swaps I've received from my PAO sisters.

Thank you Paula and Christy!
