I'm making good progress on the Easter dress. The flounces at the bottom are now on. I had planned on making the underneath tier out of a coral cotton fabric, but once I found these butterflies, I knew they should be the choice! Fun!
AS I returned from my shopping for that fabric, yesterday, I didn't see a bent sharp tool lying in the road....immediately, my right rear tire began making a terrible k-thunk, k-thunk noise. I got to my parking place (where I work) and took a look. The handle of the tool was sticking out of my tire!
Hearing of my problem, our gallant sewing machine repair person, Jim, came out to my car and changed the tire. [yeah!!! Jim is getting a batch of cookies when I go back to work tomorrow!]
So, my day off this morning started with a trip to the tire center for the installation of a new tire. Thank goodness for road hazard coverage!!! I didn't have to pay for a new tire!While I waited, I continued to read "THE HELP". It really is a good read, hard to put down..... so that's all I have done today; I just finished the book and can now start cooking dinner!
I hope to get around to visiting some of your blogs this evening!

The fabric and pattern for the dress are very sweet! I know she will love it and enjoy wearing it. I'm glad you got a new tire and had help along the way. It's scary to have a flat while you're driving! Have a good night! ♥
I love the fabric for the dress, the butterflies are so pretty.
Good to hear that there was someone there to help with your tire!
Have a wonderful weekend.
The dress and the butterfly fabric are beautiful. I'm sure she will love it!
Yea for good guys like John. And thank goodness you weren't out on the highway somewhere far from help.
This is going to be really pretty...I love the colors.
Sorry about your tire...not a fun way to start the day.
Hugs, Mary
