Purple Fail

 Last week's dress rehearsal was a mess. The ice was littered with purple sequins.

 That glittery material we paid a fortune for is falling apart.

 I had spent days making eight of these sparkly peplum style vests for the smaller girls only to have to trash them all. You can't leave bits on the ice or it's an immediate disqualification for safety reasons.

 The first competition is in less than a month so we tossed the whole vest idea and decided to put everyone in no-sew purple tutus. Nothing's going to fall off these babies.

 The house is filled with tulle. Dumpy Debbie doesn't look too shabby in her tutu. I should make one for me.
