randoms ...

Almost finished ... have a few letters to add.

Yesterday, I visited the AIC and really enjoyed their new exhibit
which opens to the public on Weds June 26th.
If you get the chance - GO.   The paintings are stunning.   The mens clothing, womens dresses, lace parasols, shoes, gloves, hats are wonderful to see near the paintings and illustrations.

I saw this charming oval box in the gift shop
and when open - there are notecards
with fashion illustrations.   And, the little button ... they were free
at the beginning of the exhibit next to the brochures.

I am enjoying the exhibit catalog.    This is more than
a showcase of the exhibit - many more photos and items of interest.

I gave this bag away ... and, made three
more using the same material.   I have more fabric cut out + partially sewn.
I'm planning to mail them off next week.

Incredible.   Excellent.    

I looked over my 'to do' list and see that I have crossed off one thing for this month.    Argh!!!   Too much stuff going on.

Origami Bag

Above:   Origami bag - given to GF (w/o blog).

Tonight, the temperature has cooled down a bit - nice breeze coming thru the house.   I've got my sewing machine is up + I'm ready to assemble another couple bags.    Stay tuned.

Happy Mother's Day

Lovely flowers from the boyz.
And card.


After several errands with DH (and lunch at Fridays),
we found the Lace Issue of Piecework.
And, I have the class list from local yarn store.
Such a nice day.
