I guess first off I better tell ...Hello Jenny!!!<br /><br /> I guess first off I better tell you who I am... :) I was wearing this dress: http://i385.photobucket.com/albums/oo299/MichelleWhitaker/Sewing%20By%20Brooke/2009_11140045.jpg<br /><br />Me and my sisters got to say "hi" briefly. Unfortunately we didn't make it back over to talk to you. After being in the fashion show we have several other things we had to do. :(<br /> <br /> Your dress was so pretty! I think its great how well off you've started! I dislike thinking back to my first outfit. lol<br /> <br /> I'm not sure what all events we'll be hitting this year, but hopefully I'll be able to see you again some time.<br /><br /> Anyway it was great to meet you there. Its always nice to meet people who I've "seen" online. :)<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Brooke WhitakerBrooke Whitakerhttp://www.stitchesofthepast.etsy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659480877314850787.post-54031006375887039052010-06-28T11:24:48.602-05:002010-06-28T11:24:48.602-05:00Gillian, we have a spare bedroom. You're alway...Gillian, we have a spare bedroom. You're always welcome :)<br /><br />Sarah Jane, is the drop right? It seemed a bit too extreme for me! Perhaps I've just need to get used to 1800's clothing. Shaune and I are super excited about Galesburg. We'll definately need to talk more between now and then!<br /><br />Western Woodburner, I need to get better about that, too. It's just so easy to put it off, you know?! :)Jenny P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08782928646278570671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659480877314850787.post-49337416209939723972010-06-26T16:33:36.948-05:002010-06-26T16:33:36.948-05:00I used to finish my dresses the night before somet...I used to finish my dresses the night before sometimes, but now I have gotten around to getting them done ahead of time.

You look lovely! I'm so glad you got it...Yay! You look lovely! I'm so glad you got it done :D And I am right there with you on the procrastination - my family jokes that I never get my dresses properly hemmed until AFTER the event I was making them for - and I think the only exception to this so far has been my junior recital dress ;-) I'm the same with papers, too!<br /><br />Y'all are making me want a CW dress and someone to go reenact with, too! ;-)Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05033962421747253414noreply@blogger.com
