Gayle, it's not being helpless - it's learning patience. Trouble is I've unlearned what I learned those two years in a wheelchair.
mim, I couldn't access the QB most of yesterday. Just no connection, but everything else on the computer was fine.
Di, the dress is signed, sealed and delivered. I received an email that said it's amazing and it FITS. I was so pleased - not about the amazing - my DGD chose the pattern and bought the fabric, but about the fit. She sent a 14 pattern, I cut a 10 (McCall's runs small) so I was concerned. Funny it arrived in less than two days when the sample bodice never arrived. I still feel there was interference by a family member. Here it is, though it will look better with a body in it.

BTW, my walls are not Pepto Bismol Pink. They are a soft coral sponged over a lighter shade of the same color. Why doesn't my camera pick up orange, just pink? And yes, I beaded those valances - another wheelchair project. You should have seen me putting them up standing on one foot. One is 7 feet and one is 11 feet. The valances are heavy decorator fabric, so it was fun!
