I think I need to go shopping...

Given that Christmas is coming up *squee*, I think I might just head downtown today, get some papers signed (like I should have yesterday but oh was that a day!), and then head to either Pentagon City or Metro Center and do a bit of Christmas shopping before heading home. I know Mom wants a hooded terry cloth robe (it's finding one that is hooded that's been the problem), Dad wants a George Foreman Grill, Lee wants a bicycle helmet, Randy is getting a bunch of blankets (turns out Jeannie and Randy have only two blankets in their entire house and no comforters. They need throws and blankets.), Joey...maybe a gift certificate for best buy? I really don't know. So, shopping!

Next Week

If no one hears from me next week, I am probably fine. I'm conducting training in DC and PA all next week (I have Friday free, Thank God!) so I'm probably going to be fairly sparatic in terms of getting back to people or reading the F-list.

Random Italian Dress Pictures

The style of dress I want to do for 12th night seems to be popular between 1480-1500. I want an attached upper sleeve with a detachable lower sleeve.

( lotsa pretties! )

Got the perfect trim!

This is perfect for a tiny guard on the under dress for my 12th night dress.
