Hot Dog!
Hot Dog! I finally started going through my Christmas pictures. I know, I know...it is already the end of January. But I had some good ones that I wanted to share. So here we are:
When my parents visited over Christmas we indulged in a bit of junk food at Dog et al in Tallahassee. This little mom-n-pop restaurant has been here for years. It is a simple place with a ton of personality. I do not often partake in this type of cuisine, but for special occasions (like baseball games or holidays) it is a treat.
Now dad can transfer that huge record collection to CD.

Excuses. Excuses.
Isn't it sad how I often need an excuse to sew something for myself. My friend was having a party last week and asked that everyone bring an apron to wear in honor of the homemade Italian dinner she was making. Perfect! I have been waiting for an excuse to make a new apron. I used the pattern from the book "Sew Liberated" by Meg McElwee. I was enthralled with the cinched-in waist held together by a grommet corset. I used fabric from my favorite designer, Anna Maria Horner. I rather like the final product. Now...I am off to the kitchen to whip up something in my new apron.

Ready for Spring
I know we are in the middle of cold wintry weather, but I was in the mood for a bit of summer fashion. I love boots, jackets, and hats but nothing beats wearing a light summery top. I made this one with vintage buttons from my grandmother. I think I may need to find a cardigan to wear over it...I don't think I want to wait for warm weather!
