My first wrap! This one must be seen in person to be truly appreciated because it turned out quite beautifully and the photo doesn't let you feel it. I love the addition of the charmeuse fabric. I haven't worked with it in a while and I forgot how much it frays! And I'm talking LONG pieces of very fine thread to trip over because they have wound themselves around your legs, wrists and shoelaces. HA! Just breathing makes it shed! But oh so worth it when you handle the complete garment. I'm looking forward to working with it again. And I will because during this process I made a test piece out of a single row and loved it! So now I am going to be working on a scarf version.

The problem with being a designer is that you can get the flow of lots of ideas coming at you all at once. I find if I haven't designed in a while it can be hard to get into the creative groove again. But after I start! Whoa, look out! It seems that every night when I lay down to sleep I get more ideas. I get so many and want to make them all but there just isn't time. So I have finally decided on my last two styles for my two remaining days. (hopefully I won't dream up some new one tonight and try to squeeze it in)

Maybe for Halloween I will just cut two holes in a sheet and be a ghost. Hmm, lets see, I don't have a white bed sheet...so maybe I just will use this elegant silk double sided satin I have sitting next to me. Now that would be an expensive ghost costume!
