    Both the pattern and the color seem to have been created especially for you, because it is glorious on you! ❇💚❇The dreamy color puts me in mind of some cool, comforting, yummy summertime delights, such as key lime pie, or ice cream that is flavored with pistachio or jasmine matcha tea! 😋

    I haven't sewn in ages (since having my 3 kids) and I miss it. I bought a few of the patterns you use so I can follow along in the future. But I do love just listening to your videos (I don't watch them--- I listen while cleaning) and hoping your descriptions will seep into my mind when I'm ready to start again. I can picture what you're doing in the video. I love your vintage style and your video style.

    Your dresses and other fashion creations are so stunning! Each time you model something new for us, I think, "Well, this is it, it's the most beautiful, she can't possibly top this." And, invariably, a few days later, you show up in another gorgeous, over the top creation that you "just ran up" that is runway ready! This sheath is marvelous; I especially love the bow detail at the bust, the neckline and the color! As usual, you have outdone yourself. Then, pairing the dress with the gloves for the reveal - well, it's just so classy and sophisticated (just like you)! Did you ever see the movie, "Funny Face" with Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire? I think you could so easily replace Audrey in all the photography sessions in Paris, modeling all your own fashions. You have the style, the poise and your clothes are all from the same era as the film, an easy swap! You and your fashions would become super stars! Of course, you already are a star, to me and to your other ardent fans! 🌟🩷😊
