August Table 2018 Gone with the Wind

[Tampa Doll]

It is the dog days of August.  As I sit here in my AC and listen to the cicada bugs, I know it is very hot and humid out there.

Can you imagine wearing these cloths in August?  Even the thought of it makes me hot.

I love the movie Gone With the Wind.  Several characters are my favorite.  Starting with Mammy in her red petticoat, Prissy along with her "I don't know nothing about birthin no babies".  Then the always sweat Melonie with her baeu Ashley.  Let's not forget Scarlette and little Bonnie Blue. All these Southerners are fun, but lets put a couple Yankee's in.  Namely Rhett and Belle.  

I have added a few Southern Bells in their fancy dresses, along with a couple in their riding outfits with their horses.

Just beautiful Mary Jo.  I so love seeing your tables and trees.  I dont know how they wore those clothes especially in the heat.  I dont do well in longish dresses or skirts as I get my shoes caught up in them and I dont want to even think about getting cinched into a corsett.

I can't imagine wearing those dresses anytime of year! LOL So much work goes into your tables--I'm always so impressed. I LOVE the little crochetville bag!
