It was such a delight to make this vintage lantern bag.  

 think it would be really cute in matching colors to compliment a prom or wedding dress.  Small enough to not interfere with your social event, yet big enough to hold those necessitities for the evening.  

I am going to use mine for weekend trips.  It will be perfect for holding my toiletries, not mention cute sitting on the bathroom counter in the hotel.  

Better yet,I might just do one with plarn and use it as a snack/lunch bag.  

When purchased this comes to you as a PDF pattern will be emailed within 24 hours, once payment clears.   

This pattern is scanned and reimaged into a PDF file format from my original collection of public domain books. 

In most cases, the patterns can be difficult to follow and if necessary, I have crocheted the product and then added typed comprehensible details in red to better assist you with doing what you do best, crocheting!!!

I have taken away the agony of you spending time to find a match in yarn or thread, by giving a comparable yarn/thread and hook size that are now obselete.

You can sell products made from this pattern.

Polka Dot Dress Necklace

I've been so preoccupied that I didn't realize that my Daughter has put out a new creation.  Several weeks back she had asked if I could send her some of her childhood dresses.  Three to be exact.  Above is her in one of the dresses.

I struggled with it for several weeks until I finally put them in a box and mailed them.  I had such a hard time letting them go.  Sad part is, they were in a closet and were only looked at every couple of years, if that.

I came in and posted the No Bake Oatmeal Cookies and I noticed she had an update.  When I opened her blog to see what she was up to, it literally took my breath away.  

I am no longer sad that I let the dresses go.  I am also very happy that she is incorporating some fibre with her metal arts. 

I immediately had to text and ask if she had any of the material left to make me a brooch.

I am very excited that she said yes.  Now I get to have a part of her past and a part of her future that I can wear, or maybe use as an ornament on the tree.  

Hopefully, one day, she may even want to learn how to crochet.  I do feel that need to hand it down.  

Isn't it stunning.  I just love it.

What a great way to preserve your past and have a beautiful piece of art.

With Grace,

Debra
