A Semi-Successful Day

Today was part frustration, part triumph. I picked Erin up from work and we headed over to the fabric store. After about three hours, here are our spoils:


Cinderella's bodice and underskirt (4.99/yard)

Snow White's Skirt (Although, it is more of a buttery yellow than the camera thinks it is) (7/yard)

A lovely dark blue micro-velvet for Snow White's bodice (16/yard)

A contrasting blue silk for Snow White's sleeves (7/yard) and Alice the kitten's debut.

A sheer red floral for Snow White's slashed sleeves

I also picked up this whimsical print for some project (hopefully) in the near future (8.99/yard)

We also picked up some pearl buttons for Cinderella and a few other baubles. Unfortunately, we didn't get to the cutting part, but we did...

begin to sand down Erin's dining room table. You can see her here in the initial stages. We lost our light pretty quickly, but after the second coat of stain, the table really wasn't as mahogany as the stain implied.

Oh, well. We'll take a look in tomorrow's light.
