Here's a little glimpse at my current project. San Antonio goes all out this week for Fiesta. Each night there's major partying going on down at the Riverwalk, NIOSA (night in old san antonio) culminating on Friday with The Battle of the Flowers. There is no school Friday, nor are the library's open. Yes, you read that right, this is serious business. Of course, the girls need a little dress action, and flowers are a must, serious flowers! So coordinating with existing tees we tackled the task.
It was late and I was tired, what's a girl to do put enlist the help of the only other moving person in the house. I had yards of flowers to hem and halter ties to turn. Terry gladly accepted the turning project.
I recently purchased the Dritz "Quick Turn", with a 50% off coupon at J's. But after seeing a blog post that this was actually a 'flop' notion. I was left wondering if it was wasted money. I explained my old stand by method to Terry and handed him the Quick Turn package, giving him the choice. Well whadda know, he was back in a flash with turned ties! He gives it a thumbs up.
Money well spent!
On another completely different note. It's been 15 big ones since I skinnyed into that white dress and met up with THE most amazing guy. I can't wait to see what the next 15 years bring!
Love ya, babe!

Hi, just passing through, from a forward on a fabric buying co-op I'm on, but wanted to say hi. I live down by Corpus Christi and we'll be up in San Antonio this weekend (just going to Fiesta). I didn't even realize there was anything going on this weekend. Thanks for the link, I'm going to have to check it out and see if we can manage to go.
