dinky pinky
well, i think the internets are about to crash under the weight of me announcing my happy happy joy joy everyfreakingwhere, but .....
(drum roll).....
i just got my first A+!!!!!!!!!
yep. for this. i can't remember the last time i got an A+. well, i used to top all the spelling tests at skool.
so instead of crashing the library after art class in search of stuff for my next NZ history assignment, i came home and ripped off this. the ultimate garment. it's a top.
for free, gratis.
cos i scored this sexy organza fabric from nik who got it from the sallies:
(sorry, nighttime photo - hence no pics of moi modelling the top - but sherry looks gorgeouser anyways)
i only wish kim'd consulted moi before adding that errant acute on the last "e". (sorry, can't help myself mentioning that. my excuse is that i've imbibed half a bottle of vino to make up for last night's glass that i threw on the carpet without even a sip. upset, much?). i am totally saving to get kim to make me some black linen pants though - they are amazing. hopefully that'll make up for the ripped-off-top. (and the next one i'm gonna whip up in charcoal satin.)
and the other news from today is that i handed in the essay - my lecturer even got an extra 600 words for his trouble because i simply could not edit them out. i am really rather glad another essay is all over rover. i got myself so constipated over it. hmmmmm. chill pill needed.

That fabric is beautiful. The next project I work on is probably going to be doll clothes. :)

Go you!! Awesome!!
(Yeah, I'm bummed we didn't get to meet in Feb too. Next time!)
Hey you won't believe this but I've been all over the internet trying to find a pattern like that. I have a piece of floaty chiffony silvery stuff that I want to make a drapey kind-of apron top thingie from. Send photos... many photos... of how you did it. Pleeeease! And you already know how awesome I think you are, been doing lots of reading around the Child Poverty Action Group.
Go you! Well done and all that...now go and eat some pies!
