THE ART OF ROSETTE MAKING

Today I am making rosettes for the new summer dress project.  I've been practicing making rosettes with ribbon.  YouTube has a lot of different "how to" videos to watch that were really helpful in learning this art.  And the rosettes, well just let me say, "Adorable!!"

I have pinned a rosette onto the neckline of the summer dress project to see if I like it.  And....I do!  It gives the simple dress just a little more class, I think.  As you learn how I roll, you will realize that I never stick to a specific pattern and, for the most part, add or take away from my original idea before the project is completed!  That's just how I roll!  I like to think of it as being "creative"....some would probably say, "Flighty or Short attention span!"  Either way, lots of good ideas have come from this way of creating!

As for the rosettes for the summer dress, well I haven't decided yet whether to go with rosettes the same color of the dress or solid black or white....so many decisions.....so much fun!  Guess you'll find out when I post finished photos of the summer dress (don't worry that's probably when I'll find out, too!!)
