sewing madness

It's bizarre how stiff and sore I feel from this. My legs ache, my back hurts, my neck is stiff and I'm really fricking tired. Saturday night I spent four hours pinning and cutting fabric, and then I started up again at 8am this morning. It was 5:30pm when I stopped. The main body of the piece is stitched together, and I only need to put in the collar and front facing and sleeves. It will need to be hemmed as well. Oh my god that fabric is a superb pain in the ass. So beautiful but so difficult.

Cate's ram made incredible pork with eggplant and zucchini and goat cheese, topped with tomatoes and pasta. So incredibly delicious, and fantastic presentation.

I like sleeping out there, with the genuine dark.
