I love Robyn Pandolph's fabrics. Sometimes, they are fun. Sometimes, they are sweet. This new RJR Fabric collection, Hope Cove, is very sweet and feminine. It reminds me a lot of an older line of Robyn's, Flirt. This particular line has really spurred on my creativity tonite. You see, my whole family goes to bed by 8pm and I am the lone night owl, along with the cats. Even the dog goes to sleep by 8pm! Since my sewing would disturb my sleeping husband, I use the nighttime to catch up on television online (no cable here) and I let my creative juices go wild. I do not have photoshop so what I like to do is use tape and paper and glue and make paper doll dresses! I have always enjoyed this.
Here is an example of what I might do with this Hope Cove line, if I get any. I am picturing a flutter-sleeved, twirly, three-tier dress with covered buttons down the front and an elastic waist.
Hey, it is in my imagination, so I can do anything I want!

So, what else do I do at night. Well, I have a very large computer screen, which I love, love, love, love! Lookie what I can do! I can watch Hulu on one side of the screen and surf Facebook on the other! What a dork am I! Right now, I am watching a preview of Smash and blogging.
The cats are ignoring me so my amigurumi collection is my only companionship. They sit on the scanner/printer, next to the computer. They make me happy. They are from All About Kendra, on Etsy. I love Etsy!! Aren't they cute? My girls don't like them so they became mine.
Kathy,
