I wanted to take a day off... from blogging!

I did!  I really wanted a day off... so I sat down with Mikey after cutting a knit dress.. the same color as are our burgandy Catholic School uniforms.  yep! the first time in my adult life that I'll actually wear that color! so anyway, I sit down with Mikey & what are we watching... Julie & Julia... and she's tired & cooking & blogging at all hours of the day... so I ask for a "pause" so I can blog!

yep!  a movie inspired me to write to you! 

the jacket! is done... yeah!!!  wanted to wear it today with jeans.. but a tad too dressy!  will have to wait for a "special" day.. maybe Monday.. 2/14! 

so I decided to make the dress... McCalls # M5927.. view E without the pockets.. I think that front pockets may just be a bit too too much!  so no pockets for me... the dress is cut, zipper in, front & back attached... I'm not lining it ... after looking at the "Jones NY" dress I bought a few months ago... also double knit & not lined!  thank goodness after all that work interfacing & lining the jacket! 

and now my break is just about over & I'm off to the sofa to finish the movie & probably snack my way thru the evening!  yep!  I snack... all night! 

good night my friends... remember to do something special for someone who doesn't expect a Valentine's treat!... it feels so good to see a smile looking back at you!  xoxo
