Handworks Crochet and then Some!

A couple of weekends ago we took a little much needed get away to ATL for a night out and a Falcons game. I am so mad that I was holding my purse in front of the applique on my LBD (long black dress)!!! I finally get to wear it out for a night on the town! We had to much fun... this is the night before the game on Sunday. You'll remember in previous posts this applique took 4ever!!! for me to finish! I felt very "pretty" in this dress. I didn't carry the super tiny matching purse but wish I did now... it wouldn't have been in the way! I LOVE going to NFL games!! (not into college fb though!) Normally I'm a Titans fan... but learning to love the Falcons since I already love ATL.... and I love the GA Dome! What a great place to see a game and not worry about ALL the rain we get! Enter the FALCONS!!!!!!! The crowd was pretty fun (not like NHL games in ATL)... Titans fans are a bit more "lively" though!! lol! It was SO MUCH FUN to be there ... I did...

Happy days are.... wearing a new flowy summer top... Here is my B5357!! Very easy to make and I love it! I need to make more of these before summer is over... And happiness is an evening summer dress. Here is V8489 made from more of my Panama fabric. Easy to make. BUT, its no where near done... the embellishments of swavorski jet black 20ss crystals, vintage black buttons and more will be added at an asymmetrical angel following the pattern of the print. Happy days are not complete without my dog friends! Look at my sweetheart Dixie... Here she is last week after her ears were done. I was shocked that she came home all hyper and excited! I thought she would be tired and sleepy from the surgery... but not Dixie! Hyper as ever and ready for a walk! I won't be able to hold her like a baby for long... Below is a pic of her on Wed. when they took them down.. with Pacster. They went back up today though.... Happy days are gathering ALL these veggies from my little back yard garden! Even...
