This piece of fabric is sitting on the sewing room table, and taunts me every time I walk in and out of the study and see it through the door way. Each night I've been working procrastinating hard on my job applications and this piece of lovely swiss cotton, bought on Monday is going to be my reward for finishing them. I'm going to make a dress.
Sweet mercies. One application was finished last night. The other - not as important, but yet still important - will be finished tonight.
On an entirely different note, one should never underestimate the joy of working with people who are not only extremely lovely, but will go into a craft shop with you at lunch time and encourage you to buy fabric and make something out of it.
