Today, I started on the smocked romper and finished the smocking today. This was the first time I pleated fabric, I used to have someone in my smocking guild do it for me. But, I tried my "new" used pleater and I only broke one needle. I'm going to try putting on piping tonight. The romper is going to be made with a white waffle fabric and the smocking and piping will be off white.
Over the weekend, my niece, Kate and I turned in our can tabs to the Ronald McDonald House in Omaha. It's a new year and we can start our collection again! Everyone in my accounting department collects so we usually full our pickle jar to the top in one year.

that smocking looks beautiful! I've always wanted to try that technique, so thanks for inspiring me.
Beautiful
