Here are my two entries for the main part of the style show on Saturday.
My Christmas outfit with the mermaid skirt, made from a Burda pattern October 2012.
And then a shirt that I made from a Butterick pattern. And yeah... someone mentioned to me privately that I tend to make frump-ware... and need to make more form fitting clothes.
Um no. Not until I lose a few more pounds... For now, I'm into camouflage mode dressing!
The literal style show was a lot of fun!
On Friday night, Meri and I pulled out the hot glue gun and started working on a Ruffles collar for my top while we watched the last Fargo episode together. I'm sorry, but I just LOVE that show!!! "It's just a space ship Ed, come on! We've got to go!"
It was a huge fail as we only had one glue stick between us.... I attempted to use crayons instead of glue sticks, as I'd seen that somewhere... but it just looked like gloops of blood on a chip. So I put the Ruffles in baggies and pinned them to my shirt.
So my entry was a top with Ruffles and a tea length skirt. Get it? GET it??!
A friend had a double breasted jacket... lol!
Man, these women are fun!
Other than that, I finished the photo book for my mom and dad! I need to get it off to the printers today so we (my siblings and myself) can present it to them this next weekend when we celebrate Christmas with them.
Tune in tomorrow when you hear me ask, "Why are earth is it raining this close to Christmas???" and "how do you stop a roof from leaking?" and "WHEN will it END??!!!"

Ok, I get the lady on the far right is wearing a hanky hem blouse but what's the one with the beer on her head on the far left?? I can't see the details well enough to get the rest of them, shoot!
You're a hoot! I'm slow. I didn't get the ruffles joke. But, you know, I'm me. ;) That looks like a fun group of ladies, though. I've got sewing to do. It's less than two weeks until Christmas so that's about right...
I make myself tired.
You guys are whacky!! LOL! Speaking of rain, I'm feeling the need to go check my basement - it's been constantly raining here - better than snow, I guess.
