Let's Get Musical

I was really, really going to start my 2009 resolution to post no product here unless it's for sale online. But it's been a cuckoo week and I haven't gotten this Sticky Notes cover posted in my poor pathetic shop and I'm dying to show you because it's so different from my usual round stitched designs.

I filled out the application for the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra biennial Designer Showcase House boutique and I remembered the woman who approached me at the School 46 show about this opportunity mentioned they like music oriented things in particular. I'm SO glad she said that because I'm not sure I would have thought of that. I know, duh.

This oval center lends itself to so many other designs, I think. I can see a stemmed flower there, or a snowman, or . . .

So I've been going in to work early this week, trying to cram lots into 4 days because we leave for Vegas at the ass-crack (as Simon would say) of dawn tomorrow. And believe me, he's thrilled about driving us to the airport at that hour. I'm taking my laptop so I'm pretty sure I'll be posting some while I'm gone. And stitching on the plane and in the hotel.

I saw some photos on a friend's Facebook page yesterday of her and a friend in Las Vegas, one of which was enjoying the nightlife. I started thinking that some people might think it's a waste to go to Vegas and not go out at night. We could stay in and watch TV or movies at home. But it's so not us, going out. I can't even imagine it. I mean we're out at night, we're not "clubbing" is what I mean.
