Sweating Like a Whore in Church

















The title of this post is my favorite quote from tonight's Project Runway. My favorite dress won, and Vincent got his long deserved auf'ing. The most disgusting thing was when Vincent was brownnosing Catherine Malandrino at the boat party. Gross! I'm here working like mad on my dog couture. I'm on the second of three custom sweaters, and am charging ahead with the second without asking the customer if she approves of the combination. I haven't had a chance to photograph it yet, and if she doesn't like it, the sweater can go into my inventory. I love the colors--mint green body, pink bands, and hot lavender tips--it reminds me of Fanny May Easter candy. I got an application via e-mail today for a vendor space at the Country Living Fair at the Chicago Botanic Garden in October. It would be the most that I have ever paid to be in a show, and would be a huge risk if I didn't sell much. I noticed that I got the application sent to me after the deadline, so I assumed that there were still open spaces to fill. So, I asked if the fee could be discounted. All they could do is say no, and I didn't feel I had much to lose for asking. On the other hand, the event is Country Living. I would love to have some editorial attention from that magazine. It doesn't help that I have to wait for some funds to be reimbursed that went to the photography for the book.

My favorite quote too! I definitely had a "Did he say what I thought he said?!!" moment! And I agree about Vincent--it gets worse if you read the interview with him on Entertainment Weekly's site. Blech. I was going to come to the KIP tonight(did it permanently relocate?) but I had a lot to do before I left for WI Friday. Another fiber fest--hooray!

What did Laura say about him? That he's a legend in his own mind?
I think that article really proved her point. He's really crazy.
