Started this baby gown last night and finished it up today!
Portions of the front yoke were
made from a
French Hand Sewn collar that I made in the mid '80s. (remember...don't throw away if there's life left)
Sent it to an auction for one of our volunteer fire departments.
Baby gowns will be just one of the items that can be ordered through my blog. If you have a little one (or one on the way) that needs a special gown just email me and we'll talk!!
I realize that this mornings post is in a different direction than the others have been, but occasionally I will share random thoughts...mostly because I like to talk! Chatty Cathy here! I have a husband who will listen and let me ramble but...sometimes he gets this funny glazed look and I know I'm really talking to myself.
Anyway, to the fifties.
I was born in that era and I'm now at that age. (Well...let's say I'm in between 50 and 60) ( and on the lesser end)!!!!
What I'm trying to say is...WOW! It's really a great age to be.
I Love It!!
Why?
You almost, at this point, begin to have the same attitude at fifty that you had has a teenager!!
You've decided you can ( within reason), wear what you want, (clothes, hair, make-up...or not...shoes, colors), do what you want, go where you want and in general just be happy because....
you WANT TOO!!!
If you're lucky, you've learned that what others do, say, wear, eat, have, doesn't have to be the stick by which you measure your life and /or achievements.
I once asked my Grandmother if a certain color (don't remember which one) would go with something green..I was a teenager at this time...she told me that all flowers have green stems! It's funny, how that out of all we discussed from time to time, I've never forgotten that moment.
If you are headed towards the number fifty...don't despair...
IT'S FABULOUS...
