Day 172: Ruffle Scarf
Some of you may remember this from Day 21.

First off, let me say the next time I decide to shave my head for a good cause, I’m going to look back at all of these awkward growing-out phase pics and reallllly think hard about it. 🙂 Really.
The top I made from this dress actually ended up looking pretty swell. But I was left with the bottom ruffle.

I managed to completely botch today’s intended refashion (I think I can save it…I just need a little more time), but I remembered that ruffle.
It made a really pretty scarf for my outfit for the evening. 🙂

Fella and I went to a drop-in that reminded me of the Rick Moranis party scene from Ghostbusters (I’m givin’ this whole thing as a promotional expense, that’s why I invited clients instead of friends.). Somehow, a few of us stumbled upon the topic of where we were in ’96. When a pretty little blonde weakly muttered, “I was ten.”, I got a nice set of “When did I get old?” pangs. Hopefully this won’t get worse as I approach the big 3-0.
Cheers!

Hello from London! I came across your blog a couple of days ago and you have inspired me to try some refashioning in the New Year. So thanks for the inspiration and Merry Christmas…
