I've already made one DIY kit (Anna's Garden Swing Skirt) which I enjoyed tremendously, so I was really planning on buying another DIY kit. But in the end, I decided to follow your lead of making a few jersey dresses and playing around with embellishment ideas of my own. Your posts here letting us know that 3 yards should do it for the dress with leftovers for many little goodies finally helped make my decision. I was really thinking hard about that pewter color, however! I hope you are having a marvelous time.seashoreknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07313444169419481891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-74983390456933356822015-03-15T13:48:13.020-05:002015-03-15T13:48:13.020-05:00Oh you lucky girl!

Splurge a little, I'm sure you won't regret it! And you seem so good at using what you have, not always saving for "someday" - so nothing will go to waste.

I can imagine how you'd be enjoying this.<br /><br />I just looked up Alabama Chanin on Google Maps because, I am embarrassed to say, I wasn't sure exactly where Alabama is although I knew it was in a state in the South. Around the corner from Alabama Chanin, on Helton Drive, there is a shop called The Blue Door Thirft Store! If you run out of things to do in AC (hahaha) you can pop around there. :)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751315680374413649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-90007890070986428122015-03-14T00:11:31.316-05:002015-03-14T00:11:31.316-05:00What fun for you!

Can't imagine getting to touch and feel and see the garments firsthand. So much fun!<br />I have been to Florence but haven't been to the factory yet - hope you have a marvelous time, Anna, and can't wait for you to share your purchases with us! <br />I am vacillating with my cart items now - to get more DIY kits or just some yardage for dresses? So many great choices! So many wonderful colors!!seashoreknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07313444169419481891noreply@blogger.com
