Mary's Dress

I have been working on a dress for Mary for nearly a month now. But I had a mishap with it a couple of weeks ago. I was pressing the zipper and burned the fabric. I felt sick! And when I went to bed that night I even prayed about it. Early the next morning I woke up and was thinking about it. I had the idea to unpick the side seams and put on a sash. All the seams were serged but I thought I could still make it work. Then I remembered the table cloth I recently made. I cut and hand sewed felt flowers in the corners. I got really excited!

So this is how it turned out. I like it even better than before!

It does not totally hide the discoloration but hopefully it is not too noticeable. "Creation brings deep satisfaction and fulfillment. We develop ourselves and others when we take unorganized matter into our hands and mold it into something of beauty...."
