My 1st fabric purchase

It was 1960-something and the project for home-ec class was an a-line skirt. Went to The Charles Company, a local department store, long before Wal/China-Mart. In the basement they had home furnishings, children's clothes, and a fabric department.

I knew how to read the pattern and after some searching in various areas I found exactly what I wanted. The ladies working there seemed to act as if they didn't like my choice, but after all, it was MY choice! It was an ivory color and had stripes. It was a heavy denim-like fabric.

When I showed Mom what I'd bought, she didn't just laugh, she howled!! Was I really going to sew a skirt out of that?, she wanted to know. Yes, I liked it!! Turns out it was pillow ticking! I ended up having her help me and chose a dark navy with a lime green narrow stripe. Made the skirt, a blazer, and slacks out of that fabric and wore it many times!

Quotes; serious & silly

A dog can express more with his tail in seconds than his owner can express with his tongue in hours.
Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want at the moment
If cats could talk, they'd lie to you
If I look confused, it's because I'm thinking
Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be - Abraham Lincoln
Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are... Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in my pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return. -- Mary Jean Iron
Sooner or later, we all sit down to a banquet of consequences
There are no short-cuts to anywhere worth going.
