Something for me

I have finally decided to make something for myself.  I'm going to make something for me to wear!  Yay!  See... a while back, I bought a dress for $20 at DressBarn.  Its really nice, but its sleeveless.  I am not so much a fan of sleeveless things.  I have fat arms.  Nuff said.

Here is the dress. 

Not sure if you can tell, but its a nice chocolate brown with cream stripes.  I really like the dress.  However, being uncomfortable showing my arms... well... I haven't worn it. 

On my new favorite website, though... I found this:  A Shrug to wear over it!  AND I have cream colored yarn in the right weight and amount!  Awesome!  So this Shrug has been added to the project queue.  Not sure when I'll get to it, though.  Not before Mother's Day.  Maybe I'll wear it on a date with Jerry before he leaves.  :) 

**Note** I just noticed that the yarn I have to make the shrug and Abbie's Cardigan to the right are the same color.  So that will be the color of the little sweater I make to go over my dress!  :)
