It flows beautifully and may bea little long without the dress under it but I believe that the dress which has a wide skirt it will be the right length. This will be a titanic first class outfit. Hoping it looks okay.
Next I had some dragonfly material in the colour of purple. Thought it would be a good start for a Chinese New Year out fit. Have a pointy hat that I can do something with to make it red and this is the material
Pretty isn't it. Well this took me all day to finish and get the sewing machine back to my friend . This is what it turned out like
The couloir does not look right in this picture but it is purple and the Jammie's under it a a silky purple. With wide legs to make them confy. The light was not good when I took the picture. So yes they do look red..
Now I have a couple more projects to work on. I said I would make a couple of quilting projects for a couple of events coming up in the future. I just love crafting. It keeps me busy and the advantage is aim not eating. If I am keeping busy. I can stop when I have to and I can keep working on it if I know I can. Not like work where I have to be there standing all day without a chance to sit down.
Alright enough about work. This blog is not about me whining about having to do something that is going against my grain right now.
Alright so today I did a little drive on my own. Very proud of my self. I have ventured out on my own.tomorrow is an event for red hatting. Called project runway. Some ladies are going to model the hats that they made. The best part is they made them out of lampshades. And the criteria is they get a lampshade and decorate it so that all the items come from a dollar store. This should be interesting to watch tomorrow. Give eat few ideas about what I could do. Well I did make a lampshade hat but I did not use all dollar store items. So it sits at home while I go out and have some fun.
Just so georgious isn't it. Ha it will stay in my room and not be worn anywhere special I think. Anyways I did try something different. Next a bra hat that some of the ladies are making. Don't think so on that either.
Well let's see getting back to my drive. For the morning I tried to do a little drawing on my next project. Flubbed it up at least twice before I got it right. Or as close to right as I think it should look. It is suppose to be a spiral design. Now for me getting it down on material. That will be another question. Anyways gave up on drawing and decided it was time to leave. Was not sure what the border crossing would be like or the drive over the countryside. Might take forever or might just be a snap. So I get to the border and the line is only five minutes or so. Okay this is good. I get up to the gate and say gods afternoon. He says where you heading. I say casino in ferndale. Are you meeting anyone there. Yeah and few red hat ladies. So your a red hat lady. Yes I am. Okay have a nice day. This is so nice I love being a red hatter. The border crossing seems to know them well and so far has not given me much trouble and not many questions for going to the states. Now I am on my way. I have my route all written down so I know where to turn and where to go. Hopefully no construction that takes me off route or I am hooped. I make all of my turns until all of a sudden I seem to be going further then I thought. Oppps must have missed a turn. Next thing I know I am at another road I reconize from the last time I was down here. I am in Bellingham now instead of heading towards ferndale. Okay where did I go wrong. Hey this is the road to the airport. Okay just take it over to I 5 and then backtrack a little. That will get me to the road I should have taken. Yes back where I shouldbe. Off the expressway and onto overpass. Now I am driving on the road I should be on. But things do not seem right. Should there not be buildings around here. I thought this was in a town someplace. Nope. I am driving in the country. Up ahead well!!! There is the casino. Out in the middle of nowhere. Only see a gas station here. Well this will be a fun place to walk around. So I get my self checked in Unpack a little and then head down stairs and wonder around. Well should have brought my swimsuit. Could have gone in the pool. Did not think of that. So the only other thing is casino. Well I gamble but always loose.
Never any luck with me. So I spent the past two hours down I the casino. You know what. I am up 210 dollars. What cha think of that. And all on just putting 20 bucks in the machine. Went to another machine and no luck there. So jumped to another one and nothing much there either. Okay around five figured I should get something to eat. So went over to the buffet. Oh boy was that a good buffet. Veggies and uns to start. Then there is seafood and more seafood and then there is beef and steaks. More veggies to choose from. Then the. Best part of all. Dessert. Lots and lots of dessert. I am just stuffed. So now it is either go back to room and wear off food just sitting on bed or do I play a little more slots. Well I went back to the slots.. Traveled through a couple of machines before I found one that gave me the rest of my winnings for night. Figured I better stop while I am ahead or I am just going to loose everything I just gained. I know it is not much. But it paid for my dinner and is giving me a little more for my Vegas trip. So a little more spending money down there. Probably loose it in machine tomorrow or Ina. Machine in Vegas. My luck never stays very long.
So that was my excitement for today.. Got a little lost and got back on track. Won a little cash. Not much but nice to do for a change. Did another adventure on my own. The dashing darling is doing her best to have a little red hat fun. Talk to you tomorrow night.
