New Year's dance

New Year's Eve...New Year's dance. Not such a unique way to bring in the new year. What I think is unique is that Amy made her own dress for the dance. You know...my mother sewed a lot of our clothes when I was growing up. I didn't think it was odd, but it didn't seem mainstream. I sewed a lot of my clothes through high school and my early adulthood. It was even less mainstream at that point. Now, the number of people that make their own clothes is even smaller. Amy is the only one in her group of friends (that I'm aware of anyway) that does this. I think it is awesome. Not only do you save some money, but you get to choose the fabric you want, in the style you want, with the fit you want. Can sewing be a genetic trait?

It's also important to practice dancing before a big event. What better partner than your own sister?

Oh, by the way, Happy New Year!!
