That would be amazing!

Should you find such a place, I'm ready for a field trip.

I believe there is no such thing as too much sock yarn.

Here's one of the skirts I made

And this is my Hollywood waist skirt that gave me so much trouble with the invisible zipper. I wore it on Saturday night and it didn't fall apart

and I got quite a few compliments.

And these are otedama, Japanese juggling toys. You can't tell from the photo but they're only a little more than an inch on each side and filled with rice. It's also traditional to make them look like fruit or animals but I haven't had time to try that yet.

Great skirts LH! I also really love the fabrics used on the juggling balls. Very cool!

Of course, I'll only be going to support my friend in her fabric choices!

I have to admit that no pics of our garb was taken this weekend (for various reasons). Pisser.

I went shopping for this but they were out of stock so I decided to make my own.

I think it turned out really well.
Rolled up in my purse I can get at my stuff!

Love that fabric! I made a purse out of it once.

Curse you, Marni. I saw your duster coat in Nordstroms. Now I can think of little else.

Except how to make a knock-off. No way am I paying that for a cloth coat. Now to search for a pattern...
