Vintage Striped Dress


The little Armstrong boys and I made a brief trip to my grandpa's house yesterday to say hello and spend a little bit of quality Labor Day time with more family. Since Granny passed away and the sorting of her belongings began, I rarely return home from a trip to their house empty-handed. There are always boxes to sift through and vintage treasures to be discovered. Last night I came home with this dress.

It's comfy and sweet and still smells like their house (that's a good thing).

Working on a new print today based on a line from a Sky Sailing song that runs through my head a lot these days...just haven't been able to get a good visual representation of it on paper yet. It'll probably be a free download when I'm done, though, so be sure to check back. And I'll give away a signed one too.

Chocolate-covered strawberries....Hudson's contribution to last night's potluck. So good.

Well, time to pick Hudson up from school so I'm off to test this dress's bike-riding capabilities : )
