i love this dress and your current versions of it. I may need to go to ebay myself.

I recently found a cookbook from the KC power and light company, created by Mayne W Smith. Started my research on Ancestry.com and got additional information about the life of Mayne. From there, I plan to hit the state historical society. just a suggested research opportunity.

I love this story so much and the beautiful coincidences which brought Mrs G’s archive into your world. And these dresses!! Wow!

I’ve ordered the pattern from eBay and can’t wait to see what happens when I try it.

I am so excited about receiving your stories in the future ♥️
