Sometimes a fun project just falls in your lap!

Mary Kay Director Linda Rousey asked me to make her a ball gown from the drape used to cover her new Mary Kay Cadillac. She's the belle of the ball at the national MK meeting in Atlanta tonight!

Update: Linda texted me last night that she had received an award for the dress. I didn't even know there was a competition.... Now I can say I'm an award winning seamstress!!
