fall is falling

[anotheranon]

Yes, the temperature has dropped RIGHT on time, just after Labor Day to remind us all that fall is on its way. Not that fall is necessarily bad - the slightly cooler temperatures and all of the pretty leaves are a nice change. Its just that its a reminder that winter and the 4-5 months of never being able to warm up are sneaking up on me. I'm even noticing the shorter days already.

Note to self - if the temptation strikes to make anything out of silk dupionni ever again, make sure it doesn't involve button holes. I fought with the machine for 2 hours last night to do 4 button holes in this evil material and I've still got 2 more to go.

if the temptation strikes to make anything out of silk dupionni ever again

If it does, let me know. I've got 3.25 yards of a very pretty purple silk dupionni that I found last night. I bought it about two and a half years ago to have someone make a dress for me out of a 50's pattern, but it was two and a half years ago and these days I need more fabric than that. =/ I'm trying to come up with ideas on what to do with it; maybe a run through Joann's next dollar-pattern day sale is in order.
