As you know -- Mary and I were invited to Beaver Dam, Wisconsin for Nancy's Sewing Weekend. A FABULOUS EVENT...
Because Beaver Dam is less than a 4-hour drive for me -- I went in my car. So I didn't have to worry about editing my samples down to fit into a 50-pound suitcase to fit on a plane. However, after FILLING THE CAR -- I still managed to forget a few key samples at home. So, I went to Nancy Zieman's sewing studio to ACTUALLY SEW...here I am, obviously delighted to be using Nancy's Baby Lock Ellisimo to sew a 10" seam on my wearable-towel-wrap...
This was on the first day of the show -- and I wore my recycled jeans from EXPO for the morning "Shop and Dine with the Ya Ya Sisters Goodwill" event.
This is me and the Hey Rita tote -- using Nancy's cutting table and tape measure. I asked my friend Deanna to take the pictures. AREN'T THEY WONDERFUL? No kidding...I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my little point-and-shoot camera that did such beautiful pictures and also little videos...
However -- moments after this picture was taken, I DROPPED my little camera and broke it. Darn it all...So, now, I am in the process of learning how to use my NEW LITTLE CAMERA...and I can only say THANK GOD I have at least 1000 pictures on my computer from the little old camera...Because the learning curve is huge...
But -- HEY -- Thanks, Nancy and Deanna for allowing me to use the beautiful SEWING STUDIO. I'm glad that -- IF I HAD TO BREAK SOMETHING THAT DAY -- it was my camera and not any of Nancy's sewing equipment!!
Did I tell you that dang zebra fringe invaded my dreams. Scary.
