winter flowers

i can't escape the allure of the little 90's dress. it's a mix of the love of ditsy florals and a desire to relive my childhood. this piece i bought months ago in a thrifting excursion but just finished hemming and altering. it often takes me forever to get around to doing alterations. once i start though i'll do a bunch of pieces until something happens, like my bobbin runs out of thread or my needle snaps. after that i can't be bothered again for months. this one turned out nicely though and i loved the look of it with all the black. it winterizes the dress but also makes it pop. as for life, i'm pretty much done my xmas shopping (1 gift left) and now i'm off to the airport as kevin is heading up to timmins to be with his family. it's funny how big ontario is that you have to fly to cities becuse it takes nine hours to drive there.
