Today’s dress wasn’t very fun at first.  :/

Frumpola!

I needed something cute & hostess-y for brunch.  This wouldn’t cut it as-is.  I made a big chop!

Bye Frumpy Length!

Next, I pinned the raw edge under.

After a quick press, I was ready to set the table for a lovely Sunday Brunch!  🙂

Breaking out the Fine China!

Wait…did I say table?  One table wouldn’t seat all of our guests.  Our house is quite small, so we set the coffee table as well!  🙂

Table #2! 🙂

I love having fine china.  🙂  Ours was originally bought in the 70’s by Fella’s Mum.   She very kindly gifted it to him, and I’ve taken on the challenge of collecting more of it when I find pieces on ebay and the like.  🙂

Our Pattern. 🙂

Of course, our guests aren’t the sit-down type.   We all filled our plates and mingled, while sipping many many mimosas.  🙂
