high hopes... the sequel

it would be most true to say dearest readers

i am extremely proud of myself.

i am not saying that in a boastful way

more of a 'i can't quite believe i did it' way.

for armed with my roll of coloring paper,

a few yards of fabric,

little more than a sketchy idea in my head

and

my high hopes

i created a dress.

it is a little bit crafty,

it is a little bit eclectic

and

it is a little bit Tif.

so without further a do,

may i present in all her newborn glory

a 'high hopes' frock

to some upon close inspection,

she may appear to be just a floral potato sack

with some dottie angel charm

but to me

she is filled with high hopes of things to come.

i am quietly amazed that not only did i construct a dress with nothing more than my imagination and my hands,

but it actually fits,

it is, i believe, well made

and most importantly of all,

is wearable.
