Happy New Year!!

1/2/2020

 
I know I'm a little late, but Rex and Bianca had wanted to host a New Year's Eve party, and had invited Baron and Rosie, but the poor girl had absolutely nothing to wear.  I had to quickly make her a gown, and it took a wee bit longer than I had thought. Too much birthday prep and partying, and a house full of guests will do that.  So Rex and Bianca spent New year's Eve by themselves...

 I finally finished Rosie's gown today....

So they went to visit Rex and Bianca and welcome in the New Year....

"Here's to a great year!!"

"To health, happiness...."
Picture
".... and lots of adventures..."
Picture
"No resolutions..."
Picture
"Just let the year unfold as it may..."

"Happy New Year!!"

And all the same good things are wished for you, Martha. May health, happiness, love, adventures and creativity fill your life in the year ahead!

Rosie's gown is beautiful and really suits her dramatic look!

Thank you! And the same to you Donna!

I tried so hard to get that dress done in time (started it Sunday) but it was one of those 'Had a mind of it's own' things, with constantly having to start over, redo or change something. Now Rosie just needs to be blushed so she's not the same colour as her dress.

Rosie's dress is stunning. Baron looks happy to be standing next to her.

Bianca and Rex look like they had a very nice New Years celebration.

I am looking forward to their adventures too!

Happy New Year, Martha! : )

Your festive group are all very beautiful - and Rosie's new gown is too.
As always, delightful photos!

Rosie's gown: WOW! She and Baron have a bit of a Victorian vibe going on. I love it.

Thanks! I thought Rosie's gown looked rather 'Victorian' myself, especially with her skirts flared way out. And I just prefer Baron in this outfit, instead of just being another guy in a tux.

Happy New Year!
I love Rosie's dress. I like it even better than Bianca's. It has such an exquisite look, just beautiful. To be true, I admire your sewing and embroidery skills. I will never get that good (I'm not dedicated enough, I guess).

I will admit I gasped when I saw Rosie's dress. It's truly spectacular. Brava!

Rosie's gown is absolutely stunning on her! Wishing you the best in the coming year. I almost never comment, but always enjoy reading your blog and seeing your photos. You are incredibly talented.
