I finished my Farrow Dress.
It’s very frockish. Super comfy and cool in the linen. Maybe it will dress up a bit with some sandal clogs. (Yes I used “dress up” and “clogs” in the same sentence.)
It was a new method of making pockets for me. I’m calling it the “apron method.” There is another complete layer of fabric across the inside front from the seam down. Since this is a medium weight linen, it makes it a little heavy. It’s not a good pattern for French seams but I made it work.
Not bad. Do you like it?
I got a little work done on my art piece. Do you like it? I’m liking it. I guess the real question is how long will I do this before I go home and have a glass of wine?
Or should I bring the wine here and keep working?
This is my choice for selfie of the week.
(Edited: I replaced the gym selfie because I thought this one was more appropriate.)
We just donβt have warm enough weather for wearing linen dresses here, but I like that loose style. Very clever pockets. Your felt landscape is coming along and looks great so far.

I love your dress. Itβs perfect for warm weather.
I vote for going home and then a couple of glasses of wine:)

I like your dress very much, looks very comfy π. I have started my summer dress two years ago, got very busy last summer so never finished it. The photo of your dress makes me want to try again ππ«

I love the dress. If Dankso sandals aren’t fancy dress shoes I don’t know what is.

Your new dress is wonderful! So lovely and summery! I agree with mildlygranola – if Dansko sandal/clogs aren’t fancy, then nothing is π
I do like your felted art – It is beautiful!
