Moar ruffles. Today I did two short ruffles for below-the-elbow sleeves, with stroked gathers (although technically I don't fuss too much about the stroking, it's the way they're attached to the band that I go with) - they look excellent. I think I'm about ready to start making ones for Etsy, so I ordered a couple of yards of all the fabrics I'd liked from Dharma (lawn, voile, gauze). I need to get out my camera and take pictures of this pair, and upload my Latham photos to FB.
While eating lunch this morning I bit into a grape and accidentally inhaled the juice. DO NOT DO THIS. Oh my god. It still hurts in my lungs.
It's intriguing that when Hulu advertises for Coronation Street (interesting choice, Hulu) they literally only show about 10% of the actors. You'd think the whole show was about the mean dark-haired woman whose name I've never been able to remember.
Walked to the grocery store for peanut butter and choc. chips, then to Mom's, but she wasn't there so by the time I got home I'd walked like an extra 3/4 of a mile.
Just getting to last week's Smash. UGH. From the audience being expected to take a class of srs theater major undergrads as objective critics of a musical comedy's script to Angsty Composer Guy's absolutely ridiculous entitlement (seriously, who thought this was a good storyline? With Karen in the beginning believing she could/should be a star right off the bat it was eyebrowy enough, but this guy is completely getting under my skin. As a member of the generation these characters are supposed to be in, it just seems insulting to focus so much on obvious shoot-to-the-top stuff. It's not escapist, its unsophisticated and uninteresting). At least Derek finally tore a strip off him, but it's not enough given that he thought Karen would actually leave the show for his immature ass. I'm also confused about Ronnie. She's supposed to be a big-time Broadway star, apparently, but during this rehearsal she acts like she's never played a role onstage.
