I'm me, and the me I am can be quite sentimental.
I know it isn't much. I know it doesn't really mean anything, but at Christmastime, sometimes you hear from people you don't normally hear from. And it's a pleasant surprise. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling to know that someone is thinking of me.
And, I've mentioned this a really long time ago, way back in the day: my wedding dress. Well, the lady who volunteered to make it for me has been working on it off and on for several years. She called me and said that it's almost finished. She said it will definitely be done before classes start back up in January. I'm so excited! I can't wait to try it on. Not that I'll need it anytime soon, but . . . who knows? I'm always up for a pleasant surprise.

Love it! I bought my wedding gown fabric back in 2003 before taking a 3 month AYC trip. It was on clearance at Hobby Lobby. It was exactly what I needed for a regency gown a la Lizzie Bennet. Nine years later, I had it made into a gorgeous custom gown by a professional costumier because I was too stressed out to make it myself! Simply having the fabric and a design concept in mind did help to alleviate some of the stress, so I'm definitely for planning ahead. In the end, I probably spent more time deliberating over the bridesmaids' pattern than my own gown.
Wishing you the best in the new year!
