I just got you're emails.

You know for the life of me, i can't remember what it was for. Was it colour matching the binding? I'm very confused, it wasn't at the forefront of my mind and now its all mixed up in my head.

Whatever it is, don't worry about paying to send more - if the other turns up, thats great, if not, we shall do the colour matching thing with that site.

I got the red one - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=004&item=1400095403

except, i don't know what to do about postage, and it takes so long. Would it be possible to send it to you, and you just send on the blouse piece to me? (actually, if you do that special delivery thing, i'll pay you back, and you can send the swatch at the same time) I think that would be best, time wise, it just depends on whether you're willing to lug it to D*C with you.

As for binding etc, I was intending to go get it monday, when i get paid, so if it hasn't arrived, we'll discuss colours at the weekend.

Glad to hear you are better Tristan!

Well, I mailed you another swatch anyway. So, hopefully something will arrive.

By all means, send the saree to mee. (hee hee). I'll mail you the blouse piece, no probs. Is it coming unsewn and you have to sew it? Is that what it is?

We can still do colour swatches over the weekend if need be. Whatever's easiest for you. I just want my mail to get where it's supposed to. It's frustrating to pay for things that never show up, eh?

Oh, and it was for the binding on the corset. You were thinking of doing it in the colour to match the underskirt. A golden brownish colour.

Oye, it would be so much easier if we could all aparate and disapparate like in Harry Potter.

oh at this point i wouldn't even say no to the floo network!

Ok, cool. I'm thinking if its alright by you, I'll get it sent your way, and don't worry about sending anything on - i dug up my fabric collection and found some nice black material with which to whip up a top, so if we want to wear them at D*C, or if i don't have time on getting back, i've got that to wear with it.

(yes, as far as i can make out, it comes separately and unmade, which is good, as my belly is far from tanned and toned, so those tops they made up were all a wee bit short!)

Thank you so much, to mail it to me would have almost doubled its price, so you are a life saver (or a cat saver, my money this month has to go on taking kitty to a groomers, she's getting old and her fur gets matted, and she recently made friends with some plant which has left those little sticky burr things in her coat - to the nice lady with the trimmers will be terrorising her soon.

Now, This one had to be bought out and shown to the world.
Everybody - say thank you Arcadia.

Oh, no problem! Least I can do, and all that.

But, you do realize when it comes I'm going to open it up to ooh and aah at the pretties.

I mean, to inspect the package to make sure everything's as it should be. Yeah.

Did they give you an appropriate shipping time? Mine was 3-4 weeks I think.

Morning, all!
Ok, so I recut the boot last night and left more room around my ankle this time . I found some leather-to-leather glue that seems to be holding well. I'll try to finish them this weekend and see what y'all think.

Kinda makes me I had swatches to send through the mail...

ooh good! Can't wait to see more pictures.

Do you want to mail some swatches so you don't feel left out? Cuz I'm sure we could arrange something.

Of course, it's one thing to mail the swatches. It's a whole OTHER thing if they actually ARRIVE where they're supposed to. grrrrrr.

I'm going to need some serious criticism of the boots. I'm not entirely sure I am happy with them, so I am going to need honest opinions. I may be able to get some pictures up tonight or tomorrow evening. And I know y'all will be honest with me.

Not, I'm ok with the swatches...just funny that they are winging themselves around the world. The cloth is better traveled than some people I know!

Tristan, they're gonna look fine - the question is, are they gonna be comfortable enough for you to be shindiggin' in 'em for hours and hours?

And for the ladies:
I know a great source for gorgeous glass bangles.

And I also just found this eBay seller who makes gorgeous corsets. I am very tempted.
