My daughter is a figure skater and one of the things I have been doing lately is making skating dresses. I love doing them! They're a nice change of pace from quilts nad tuffets, and the fabrics are so fun and sparkly. I spend a lot of time making group costumes, but am wanting to do more individual costumes. Here's a simple black dress wth lots of Swarovski crystals. I have worked with crystals before, but not in this quantity. I have to say, it sure is FUN! This dress has cyrstals in clear, two shades of gray, and black. Here is one of her skating; it's hard to get action shots with an iphone through smudgy rink glass!

Gorgeous! Don't you love going to their special events like that? It always made my heart glad to see my children involved in wholesome activities. Mine were in orchestra, marching band/rifle team, Hi-Q, and an occasional theatrical event. I miss those days.
