Look what I made!: Poppy's 70th birthday
http://yvetteadams.blogspot.com/2014/08/poppys-70th-birthday.html
Monday, August 25, 2014. We had a beautiful lunch at the Hyatt for my father-in-law's birthday recently. Oh my goodness, the food was amazing. Especially the seafood and desserts! Then it was back to their place for a special cake for the retired electrician. It was a lovely afternoon to celebrate his birthday. Posted by Yvette Adams. Beautiful photos Yvette. What a lovely family occasion. And all those grand daughters! August 27, 2014 5:01 PM. There are some lovely family photos there :) Dad.

Look what I made!: Altering cardis
http://yvetteadams.blogspot.com/2014/10/altering-cardis.html
Tuesday, October 14, 2014. Boy I have a lot of cardis! They come in so handy, especially with sleeveless dresses which I do love to wear to work, in air conditioning! Recently I bought a few plain cardis in op shops because I loved the shape of them - they're not shapeless cardis like most of the ones I already own, but nicely figure hugging cardis with a fitted waist. But they were boring black and boring oatmeal. So I had a think about ways to pretty them up. By the way, I just found these instructions.

Look what I made!: What I Wore Wednesday

Wednesday, August 20, 2014. What I Wore Wednesday. I've been neglecting my blog, but Mardi's Blog Hop post has got me going again. So now I have a few outfit posts coming up soon. First one coming up! Last year I bought some gorgeous check fabric at Spotlight, reduced to $3/m. I bought quite a lot and last year I made this dress. It's tricky to sew with because the fabric doesn't sit straight - it warps all over the place, but it falls beautifully and feels lovely to wear. Skirt - Made by me for about $6.

Wednesday, August 27, 2014. What I Wore Wednesday. I bought this cherry fabric at Lincraft recently in a 40% off fabric sale. I LOVE SALES! I only bought one metre because that's all I'd need to make a skirt. Afterwards I realised the border print was only along one selvedge, which meant the border wouldn't go all around the hem of the skirt, so I went back to Lincraft to buy another metre. Of course I wasn't the only one with such fantastic taste in fabric, so unfortunately it was all sold out!

Wednesday, September 03, 2014. What I Wore Wednesday. Last week I had to drive Dave to work mid morning. It's a 45 minute round trip so I decided to make it worth my while. First I rewarded the chauffeur by taking myself to San Churro for hot chocolate (REAL hot chocolate - there is no substitute! I did however buy 2 Judy Blume books (turns out I already had them with different covers - do'h), 10 zippers and this dress. So I sewed them down, wore a belt lower than the seam and now it's so much better!
