Not only is my last name Gross, but my sewing room is a mess. I have been working all weekend on reconstructing a wedding dress into a Christening gown. I still have a day to go and it will be finished. Hopefully by tonite. Here is a peek at the room and the gown.

Had to pull out the surger for seams.

I have been cutting lace down for this,

Have lots more work to do. It is not on the hanger straight. Lace is tacked down. I need to sew it down better, put a hook and eye and ribbon on the robe and a zipper in the dress and then a good pressing. I will be posting a finished photo.
Then it will be CLEANING TIME. We have no pets as we like to travel, so we are not really Puppy Friendly. Wednesday we will be puppy sitting our granddog(is that a word?) Jethro is about months old and not little.

Jethro not wanting his dinner, but what I’m fixing. Since he is still a puppy (130 lbs, 4ft tall on all 4 legs) he thinks everything and everyone is a toy. Imagine a sewing room, living room with Halloween items (spiders, pumpkins, etc) so I will have to puppy proof it today and tomorrow.
This week we will be posting lots about Granddaughter day and puppy week. Stay tuned, we will also have a finished Christening gown for you.

It’s a beautiful mess. That’s a puppy? Wow…huge, but so cute. Love the gown and the dainty lace everywhere.

The gown is so pretty! I have to say, your sewing room is cleaner than mine right now. I guess I need to do a little cleanup, too.

I wouldn’t be cleaning so much if we weren’t getting Jethro. He eats EVERYTHING

I like that idea creativity exploding, Outside my window I keep 3 Humming bird feeders, I love watching them. This weekend we will have a freeze so the hummers will be moving south,
Thank you

Beautiful gown! And wow! If he’s a puppy still I’m somewhat frightened at the thought how huge he’s going to be when grown up. š And if a workplace is too tidy I call that suspicious. š

Thank you for the comments. I try and keep my space picked up especially after I finish a project. Jethro won’t get a lot bigger but about 50lb heavier.
