I think you made a wise decision not posting the pictures of the row in progress. That way it was a wonderful surprise for Dayle and Herman to share with Betty. I come to think of him as one of us. He seems very interested in what she does.
Glad you and your friend had a great time at the show and meeting Dayle and Herman. You did a wonderful job on your row for her quilt. We are almost finished. This is so exciting seeing them all come the the end of their journey.

We "Did Indeed" have a great visit with Betty and Charlene ..... and Herman feels so very honored ..... "To be accepted into our circle of friendship"!

hi ladies!!
well, i've had a busy day cutting and sewing one of the christening dresses together. the only thing i haven't done is the hem on the bottom of the dress & lining. that will get done once we've tried the dress on the little girl.
(this dress was made from the embroidered satin from the 'train' of the wedding dress.)
such a sweet dress!! and a pleasure to make as the fabric is beautiful quality! it makes such a difference to work with!!
i will have a look at doing the other dress tomorrow, then put the 2 bolero jackets together another day later in the week.

catch you all tomorrow! love jacquie xxxx

Just beautiful Jacquie.

OMG .... Jacquie you've done one "fantastic" job! Those little dresses are going to be Masterpieces .... "never to be reproduced". Those little girls are going to really stand out in God's eyes ..... these dresses are going to be the "Whipped Cream on the Strawberry Shortcake".

Just thought I'd let you know .... especially you Jacquie .... I've been working today the appliqueing process on your row. If I must say ..... "It's coming out just beautiful, even better than I had imagined". Herman took a peek at it and he was amazed how fantastic it looks. I will post a picture of it for all of you to view, as soon as I finish it.
