Channeling my inner Diva!!
Last night my band had to work a country club holiday party. Man was it a partying crowd. I know I'm suppose to be working on some bathrobes right night and the patterns are cut out, I just have to cut the fabric. Anyway, I couldn't find anything in the store that I really liked so I made a pit stop at JoAnns Friday night and picked up some velour fabric. I already had a few patterns in my stash so I decided to go from there. I went with Vogue 8358. I was able to cut and sew the gown up yesterday before the party. This pattern is pretty straight forward and works up pretty fast. This was my first time working with velour and it won't be my last. It is a very forgiving fabric and it is so comfortable and warm fabric to wear. I made a shrug to wear with it to cover up my back as it's only about 30 degrees here, and I've been freezing my butt off. Also, I need to work out. But the back does look like the photo. All in all, I would definitely make this dress again. Well, gotta go for now, I have some sewing, laundry and cooking to do. By the way, does anyone watch Glee. I love that show.

You go girl. You look like a diva, love it.
You look fabulous... Definitely Diva
Mmmm, I have nothing to wear so I'll just whip something up in a day . . . Are you kidding me? You are insane! And it's not just a little thing, but something you could easily wear to a black tie. I am in awe.
All I can say is Wow!
You are working that dress! Great job on the fast turnaround time.
Great dress!! You look stunning! I love Glee!! I need to catch up though...
Very hot dress for some very cold weather! And bravo to you for getting it done so quickly.
Wowee! You look fabulous in that dress!
and... I love Glee. I can't believe we have to wait until January to find out what happens next!
HOT! Yeah, I agree with Robin - I can't believe you "threw this together" in a day.
