All Rights Reserved To help keep everyone's spirits up as they waited for a transformation potion, Kassia and Adrian held weekly banquets with everyone invited.... But as the weeks went by.... ...everyone's tastes started to change... The longer they were cats, the more they developed a taste for 'whole' food... ...and the fresher the better.... Whole rabbits and rats were a favourite.... "These rats are fantastic!" "And definitely worth all the hair-balls we'll be spitting up tonight."
When trying to choose who to ask to be a flower girl at her upcoming wedding, Naomi decided that she couldn't just ask the King and Queen's two daughters. There were five little Princesses, and she didn't want to hurt any of them and leave any of them out. So she asked all five. Which meant making dresses for them. Two girls - Faye and Judith - were already wearing blue dresses, so that seemed like a good colour choice. I decided I did not want a set of five identical, frilly, one-time-use dresses, but would rather make slightly different Fantasy Medieval styled gowns all in different blue fabrics, so they could be worn again. I decided to make a smaller BID size version of Faye's dress, a bigger KID size version of Judith's dress, and a third new combo. So I went through my fabric stash...and got started... I decided to work on all three at the same time, knowing it would be more motivating than doing one entire new dress at a time. First to be finished was the simpler new style dress... Three girls in their new dresses.... ...and all five flower girls.... Copyright © 2022 Martha Boers
