The bottom part of John's computer chair was worn
through to the wood underneath. Milo helped me
take the chair apart, and we put a new cushion and
some new fabric on it. Not an exact match,
but much better than the old worn seat.

Wedding Dress

A few weeks ago, Stephanie posted about a 
white dress that she had made for her daughter.
For some reason, I had never thought about making
Ruby a white dress. After reading about Mabel's
white dress, however, I decided that it made
perfect sense for Ruby to have one.
After all, she and Milo get married nearly every day.
I used the Audrey dress pattern from Violette Field Threads,
although I made the skirt as long as possible,
per Ruby's request. I used a polyester fabric that I 
thought would wash up well (and often). 
Ruby chose two ribbons to tie around her waist.
Ruby and Milo have had a lot of fun using the dress
for their weddings, but Ruby also likes wearing it to church.
