My friend, Helen from Queensland, Australia, reached out over the miles and tagged me for one of those well-loved blog memes. I am supposed to tell you 5 items I wouldn’t be without.

1. Lounge Pants – I figure I spend an average of 10 hours of each day in these. . . they should get a mention!
2. Spanx – Lifesaver
3. Black slacks
4. Solid color t-shirts
5. Crocs

I am supposed to tag two folks so Jawan and Megan (’cause it will make you post something!)

Stacy, Anna and others, I apologize for taking so long to respond on the “How did you make that dress?” emails. I figured I needed to post a link on here and give Tanya over at Trey and Lucy her props.

So, truth be told, I am not a genius or seamstress or even overly creative. I like to copy other folks. In the literary world they call that plagiarism. I wonder what they call it in the crafting world? Flattery?

Anyway, I sat on the floor of our living room and made the first dress with this tutorial open on the computer. I had to jump up twice to re-read something my mind forgot. The dress took 30 min. because I was waiting on LOST to finish so I could sew what I had pinned.

Oh, and I got the bandannas for the first dress at Joann’s and the bandannas for the auction dresses at Hobby Lobby.

Without further adieu. . . The 15 Minute Dress.
