Jun. 7th, 2009 10:19 pmI got a new camera today, hooray! Since I know nothing about cameras, other than I wanted one that has a zoom on it this time, thnxverymush, I got a Kodak somethingorother because it was on sale. Now I can inflict costume pictures on my f-list that aren't total crap!
Too bad I still haven't finished anything to take pictures of. Hmm. I've been home from school a month today, and what have I finished? A hat. Oh, and the bustle. I feel like that's not all that impressive.
Well, hopefully I'll have the stomacher for the pet en l'air and the pink petticoat to go with it done by tomorrow, so I can take pictures. We shall see!
Oh, and I was at Wal-mart today, and picked up a few more yards of cotton prints for the Boring Yet Crazy quilt, and two yards of canvas for corset-making - too bad I don't have any boning since I used it all in the bustle. I like the people who cut fabric at Wal-mart - they either can't measure or don't care, because I said I wanted a yard each of the prints, and two of the canvas...I measured when I got home, and on one of the prints, I've got five extra inches, and the canvas has four extra. Even the other two prints are at least one inch over. Man, when I worked at Jo-ann's, we measured that stuff to the yard exactly, and woe betide you if you didn't.
