We've had a lot of rainy weather here lately and my daughter somehow has more rain gear than anyone I know. We went to get her hair cut yesterday and she was decked out her vinyl and rubber.
She also came to work with me this morning, which she hasn't done in a long time. And she may not again for awhile. She loves to play with tape, usually the scotch variety. But today, she picked up the Thermoweb Fabric Fuse tape, which I remembered too late, is designed to hold fabric together with no sewing or heat. She wrapped herself from chest to bottom. I was able to pull some off very carefully, but much of it left a big gooey mess. Finally, I worked her dress over with some rubber cement thinner to remove the final bits of goo. Of course, rubber cement thinner has terrible fumes, so she probably won't read at grade level. But I saved that dress.
So after that incident and answering approximately 57 "why" questions, she went home and I came back to get some work done!
Congratulations to Susan who won the copy of City Quilts. I've got another book giveaway this week!
oh, but she looks so cute!!
