How could I forget?

Sometimes the brain does such weird stuff. THIS dress is the whole reason I was thinking about the Wearability post, and did I even mention it? Uh, nope. Sheesh.

It's been finished less than 3 weeks and I've already worn the crap out of it. In fact, I had to restitch part of the hem because I was wearing it when a sudden urge came on to move Tyler's boxes of stuff into the garage and I (how does one say this gracefully?) spread my legs too far apart while balancing on a ladder hoisting a box to a top shelf and, well, riiiiiiip. :-)

I've worn it to the movies/dinner with the girls, to work, shopping, and to the Dali museum with my sister (pictures of the museum to come soon). That's a lot of wash/wear for 2-1/2 weeks!

I'm definitely making this one again and soon, but I *will* fix the pattern mistake before I do (even though it doesn't bother me at all now in the finished dress). But even before that, I need to finish my in-progress New Look dress and then decide what I'm going to do with those lovely knit prints that arrived last week since I promised myself they wouldn't become stash.

I think tonight I'll watch the opening ceremony for the Olympics in the sewing room so I can do some dress hems and make a decision or two. Multi-tasking is my middle name. :-) Maybe I can get into the spirit and have my own sewing Olympics for the next couple of weeks.
