Happy 4th of July!

This really is one of my fave holidays...but this year it's even more special...I'm on vacation and my plans are for sewing, sewing, and more sewing. For about a month all I could think about were maxi dresses, and after letting a vintage pattern go on ebay, the search was even more urgent and impossible. One morning before work, I googled and somehow stumbled upon a video tutorial to make a maxi without a pattern.....I did it in one day and believe you me, it fits! I just want to send a super thanks out thre to Mimi for her excellent vid and sharing it with the world. Here's where you can find this fantastic sewist....http://myraida.blogspot.com/.
You're probably wondering where the photo is.....yeah. Bad news. Tonight my washing machine decided to eat it.....one of the straps, so now I have to figure out how to repair it. :(
In other sewing news, I finished 2 more dresses and a 3rd today. I Love Being On Vacation!!!!
