Dear Bernina (Dress 141)

Dearest Bernina,
You're gorgeous, sexy, you come in a red box, and you help me make lovely things. You're not like the other sewing machine I had, pale, sickly, plasticy shmickery. My dearest Bernina just helped me make this month's dress; she's not quite ready to show yet, I need to re-pleat because the pattern was massively off, but once I don't feel sillygoose wearing it, i'll upload it.
I hope Bernina will help me make today's dress, it's simple, classic lines, wth beading as the vertical 'lines' in the drawing.
All my love,
IP

Dear Gelobar (Dress 140)


Dearest Gelobar,Wow! One Hundred and Forty Dresses!
I'm excited, I don't know about you.
Gelobar is an amazing cafe/gelaterie near my house, where I once did a single shift of work- it was more an introductory on-the-job interview. Suffice to say I did not get in, but I did get paid in Gelato, so I care not a whit. Can I tell you? Icecream straight out of the machine- INSANITY. Too much loveliness- it was almost painfully delicious.
All my love,
