Emergency Tablecloth, Stat!

I made an emergency tablecloth today for a show this evening.

Serge and topstitch a seam down the middle, then cut off 5-6 inches on each side to keep the seam centered.

While cutting out, I said hello to a handful of humans, two dogs, and someone I kind of know, but didn’t know she sewed. She was wearing a shirt of her creation and asked for assistance with making another one.

Ahhh, I love the atrium!

      I watched Eddie Izzard’s Dressed to Kill yesterday and this comment is reminiscent of his description of learning French:

      Just slip that in when you’re buying a ticket to Paris.
