Aren't weekends grand. I love when they happen and I not only get to sew but I get a to visit with people who feel like family.
My Lou came to visit with her family. Since she was coming I quickly whipped up an Oliver & S - Ice Cream Dress. And I really did whip it up! I spent around 3 hours tracing, cutting, and sewing this beauty up. I was completely shocked how lovely this went together.
I highly recommend this pattern line now that I've made something up from it. I'm still kinda in shock I remember how to sew clothing.

I used some of the precious to me DS Quilts fabric and a button from my Grandmama that passed away almost two years ago.
I adore being able to use my talents for my loved ones.
I love you my dearest Lou and family.
