Simple Fate

...amidst a nostalgic moment, one that involved me and some old family photo albums...

 I spotted a re-occuring colourful dress. I love seeing my mother in such great dresses of the 70's 80's and 90's and have tried to squeeze into the few that remain in her wardrobe...but this one I had not seen in the wardrobe - blast! 

Im sure she probably made it too...I wondered if she had the pattern still, I hadn't come across it in my many rummages through her pattern boxes...

Later that morning, with the usual saturday Salvation Army expedition look what I found!!!

Fate? I think so! So this has gone straight to the top of my to-do pile - if only I could find a print as cool as mums?!?!
