everyone liked it

I have been working on a dress for a couple of weeks.  I really liked the fabric but it is very busy.  I was also planning on a wrap bodice for it.

I added the skirt to it and tried it on.  The bodice was not quite right and the fabric as a dress was just TOO much.

 

I refashioned even before the it was finished.  I cut the bodice off and finished the waist band.  Added buttons and wore it to work on Monday.  I got so many compliments.  I think part of it was that this is not the normal style of print I wear.  But I like it.

The bodice is going to become quilt pieces.  I have been making at least one nine square a day.  I will have a new quilt within the year.
