(no subject)

So, we're not going to Highlands this year. then again, haven't the last two either, but that's a moot point right now, isn't it?

I do think that it means I should get the creative juices flowing again. Looking at stuff in the Met helped, and all the fabric and supplies I've got lazing about just need to be used. I'm thinking of planning/starting the appliques I want to put on our coats (no, I don't care about accuracy. I want pretty! And this more relates to the fact I'm using greco-roman pieces of art to base at least some of them off of).

Also plan on at least cutting out a new pair of bag-trousers for domnall and maybe beginning work on his gambeson.


As an aside - anyone on the flist have any knowledge/experience in carving bone? (Or mammoth ivory...) I was looking at reliquaries and other small box-like things, and may look into entering one at an A&S down the road.



On a random TV-front:
The flash-mob in the season premier of Weeds made me so happy. It doesn't seem to be on YouTube yet, but when it is...
And Nurse Jackie is quite good - I'm thinking I'll end up liking it more than House.
