Lots of "Almost"
For almost an entire week now, I've kept thinking, "Oh, I'll just finish this before posting...." and I am really, really, REALLY close on several things, but nothing is quite done. Especially not this: Friday night our New Recipe Dinner Club is having an 1950s Hollywood night (complete with costumes) and I thought it would be fun to have a fake-fur stole. Because it's only 95 degrees still, so, you know, chilly..... Which required a trip to the fabric store, as not even I have fake fur just waiting around in my stash. I'll admit, I was sort of disappointed in the choice. I ended up with a black fake rabbit fur because all the others that looked sort of real also sort of looked like roadkill. I guess maybe there are a lot more costumes involving bad dog fur than faux mink, but I had actually wanted something with longer fur/hair/whatever. Oh well........ Following the directions I found on Pinterest, I dug out some black crepe-backed satin...
