My hobbies range from calligraphy, quilting, sewing, cross-stitching, crocheting, beading and the list goes on and on.
Growing up, my next door neighbor crocheted dozens of dresses and outfits for her many dolls. I was always fascinated with them.
While searching for patterns on the internet, I came across a pattern labeled, "1905 - Contessa's Crystal Gown" through www.paradisedolls.com. It took a few months and the following is the completed product.
The first few months after the purchase of my SLR, all of my photos were taken on "Auto". The pictures of the Contessa's Gown (taken a few days after I purchased my SLR) are examples of my dependency on the "Auto" feature.
