Wanna see me tap?

Thursday was rather successful.
It was something like -25, so we didn't have school.
It was also third Thursdays, which means there was a sale at the thrift store in town.
Here are a few of my finds.

There are no words to describe how I felt when I saw this.

A large, woman's, white coat.
definite potential.

I intend to leave this piece just the way it is.


A long sleeved, turtle neck, dress with shoulder pads.
I got it, if only for the look on my brother's face.

And a every simple classy dress.


For the rest of Thursday and on into Friday I worked on a few of my sewing projects.
My fingers are so sore from all the needles.
But anyways, here are some pictures of those experiments.

So I take the shoulder pads out of the woman's jacket and put on some color.
Kind of like a flappers jacket.

I couldn't decide what Kind of waist line on my dress, and I couldn't seem to get the elastic on.
So I settled for belts.
This makes the dress a little nice.

And this gives it a drop waist.

I made a few jean bags.
This is just a picture of one.


I intend to do some more today.
Stay tuned.
Peace.
