    So I thought I would share some things I have made lately.
    I make clothes to wear to work, so my things can't scream "hippie." I try to use crazy fabric and a fairly conservative style or conservative fabric and a crazy style. It seems to work, most of the time.

    paisley dress--I swear this is the most flattering dress ever. It is fitted under the bust and the skirt is a bit flared.

    pink floral dress. This has a huge butterfly collar, but it's hard to see in the pic.

    Thanks! I love the fabric. I had it for a long time before I made the skirt. I usually wear it with a pink shirt.

    Thanks, all.
    Sometimes I feel that my craftiness is inadequate, but you all make me feel good. :blush:
