Navy blue dots on white background with coral trim.
I used McCall's pattern 5313--dress A. I thinned the straps and added the trim at the bottom. I think the pattern is made to fit a little looser in the chest, but I went for a smaller size that ended up fitting exactly. Not bad for my first dress!
I came across a tutorial by Colin Smith on making a photo cube in Photoshop. I decided to try it using recent polka dot macros. You have already seen the top and right side photos, and I have since done the photo that comprises the front view.
Following the instructions was pretty easy although me being me, I got the left side a little out of whack. But hey, it's a process. Right?
The tutorial is here, but it does require a somewhat up-to-date version of Photoshop, one that has the 3D options. There is a video plus step-by-step instructions at that site.

Re "Dotted Swiss" - see Note down below.

This stucco-clad stone wall is next to a small park, right in the heart of the main shopping area in our village. It has suddenly received this wild paint job that also covers the electric service box in the foreground.. Whether the village authorized this paint job or if it is instead a prank, I don't know.
However, I like it !
Note: "Dotted Swiss" is the name of a classic clothing fabric. It is usually cotton, with a printed-on pattern of dots, often white, against a colored background. It was especially popular for women's dresses back in the 1950s. My English mom had some Dotted Swiss dresses.
Location: Dorfkern (central shopping area) Riehen BS Switzerland.

In the dead of night, Dot woke both Mariette LaFleur and Essa Nazari, her two closest house-bound friends. With no explanation, she pulled them through the castle, avoiding patrolling professors, and into the Room of Requirement. As if an emerging door was not shocking enough, what lay behind it was not something either Mariette nor Essa was prepared for. "Meet my friend."
Flickr are 21 years old (yesterday actually) and they are doing 21 days of themed images. Today's theme is "dots".
I've done lots of this type of image, especially during the Black and White Unite series of shots when I used steel ball bearings on patterned paper to create images. I have a crystal ball that I was gifted sometime ago, but I've never got round to using it, so I thought I'd have a go at making similar graphic images with this.

The best I could manage emulating Susan Smiths lovely photo in my favourites. No as gorgeous as hers though and my bag is the wrong way around www.flickr.com/photos/susansmith/49063703507
I hope you don't mind my lack of symmetric. The left one is a dress a bought from a schoolmate, the right one is a skirt I evidently wore when I was a child.
Last summer we stayed in the 19th arrondisement in Paris. To enter our appartement we had to use these beautiful stairs.
If you're Dot the Cat, an excursion down the hall requires a lot of thought and considerable caution.
Sometimes the sight of a package next to someone's door is enough to make her turn right around and come back inside. And if a neighbor should happen to open a door, Dot panics and flees for the safety of home. Double ditto for the elevator door.
If conditions are Dot perfect, why she'll stroll down the hall, absorbed and the sights, sounds and scents. Now that they've replaced the hallway carpet, that old detergent spill outside the laundry room that Dot used to love to roll around on so much is gone.
On a good day, we'll go all the way to the end of the hall and back.
Elsie, on the other hand, is reluctant to step across the threshold, preferring to wait for Dot on the home side of the door.

Dot had her longest walk yet yesterday. Our destination was the beach, though we doubted Dot would go charging out onto the sands and frolic like a dog.
Off we went, down the slope to the path that took us through the woods, across the beach-grass meadow, through the second forest and up the beach-grass covered slope of the high foredune.
Dot was game until a few moments after I took this photo. That was when she finally reached a spot on the path from which she had a panoramic view of the vast beach with its July-Fourth crowds and the open ocean beyond.
"No thanks," said she, "far too exposed and dogs," making a U-turn and heading back up the trail.

A string of DOT111 tank cars on a empty ethanol train headed WB between Hampshire and Genoa, IL These unit tank car trains make for an interesting photographic subject, although these cars seem to have a dark side as they tend to rip open easier in derailments, and have been involved in a few fiery derailments of trains hauling Bakken crude which apparently has a high content of volatiles. These cars are running empty back to an ethanol plant in Iowa
