I bought those small rectangular &#8216;rings&#8217; and a long chain, which I use for this one and two others I have. There are two things I don&#8217;t like about the chain. First, it stands out from the dress when I wear it. Second, it is of a sufficiently intricate nature as to get caught in my hair when I am not careful or needing a haircut. If I make more, I may make straps. We will see.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36450\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36450\" style=\"width: 259px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/DSCN1844sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-36450\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/DSCN1844sm-259x300.jpg\" alt=\"Red Dot Cell Phone Wallet - back\" width=\"259\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/DSCN1844sm-259x300.jpg 259w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/DSCN1844sm-768x889.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/DSCN1844sm-885x1024.jpg 885w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/DSCN1844sm.jpg 905w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 259px) 85vw, 259px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36450\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Red Dot Cell Phone Wallet &#8211; back<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It is a pretty easy pattern and useful for the purpose of providing a pocket in a dress whose pattern does not lend itself to pockets. There are several pockets for cards, though I only use it for a hotel key and cell phone. I have put my keys in there, but my car keys are too bulky because of the clicker for DH&#8217;s car. I toss them in and they ruin the slim line of the bag.<\/p>\n<p>After wearing the dress, I think I will bring it with me to Grand Parlor to wear at one of the less official events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I decided to wear my red dot dress to Easter, despite the rain.
