1. The color is beautiful on you. 2. I love how you took the picture while you were laughing! 3. You did a great job on the smocking. I totally agree with you about the patience thing. I don’t have enough patience already, and I don’t want to waste it on smocking. :) 4. I love this style. It shows your personality along with all your great sewing. 5. Your very talented!! Keep sewing!

Thanks for the nice comments.. To CaralaTV: no, I did the smocking on my machine (don’t think I would have had the patience, to do it by hand).. :-)
