Sewing In My Garden and Phase One For Me

I've been in my back garden stitching Roses on this little dress for Londyn.

And having morning tea!

It's very nice right now.  Cool this  morning. 

It will be hot soon enough. 

This dress is my pattern French Acadian Sundresses.

It was  inspired by the  sundresses little girls have been wearing in South Louisiana for decades.

This is a simple version of this dress.  Only a bit of lace at the yoke. 

A nice play dress!

Next I washed it and put it out to dry.

This dress can be machine washed but it didn't need it.

And I don't really like to wash lace in the machine.

I find that you can smooth the lace out when it's wet and it usually looks quite nice when dried.  I will  iron the fabric though.  Or just throw it in the dryer for a couple of minutes.

As for Jeannie's Phase One:

I did curbside pick up today !!!

This was a big step for me.

All my groceries have been delivered.

I haven't been anywhere except drive through bank and pharmacy.

Or check my PO Box occasionally after the Post Office is   closed.

This wasn't a grocers and I won't say who they were.... BUT....the two employees I saw were not wearing masks.

That keeps me home. 

I don't want to be around anyone who isn't wearing a mask. 

Employees and customers alike.

I hope you are all staying safe...and sewing.

Sewing makes me happy!

Do not fear, for I am with you; 

Do not anxiously look about you, 

for I am your God. 

I will strengthen you,

surly I will help you,

Surely I will uphold you with my righteous right hand

Isaiah 41:10
