Mother's Treat Vintage Fashion Show Tomorrow

Vintage fashion show tomorrow at the GFWC Woman's Club of Spokane. 33 outfits and a gourmet dessert.  It takes a great deal of work to put the show itself together.  Four of us spent about five hours today setting up tables, and making them beautiful. Choosing costumes, fitting models and planning a story line takes thirty plus hours. Tomorrow everyone will be scrambling hard to run the show out front and dress the models off stage.

It's a white, mint green and pink scheme to chase the long winter blues away.   We are working to make this a spring tradition at the club.   I certainly am starting to enjoy narrating the show.  And I have a new costume too, a somber little dress appropriate for my Quaker soul from 1924. I think this is my sixth time at the podium.
