I just made a perfect bound buttonhole. I've made them several times before but this one has tiny little lips and looks really, really good. It's on a black jacket and looks as good as the button I made with a stamped picture of a Marlene Dietrich type with a top hat on. This jacket is shaping up great!!
Had to brag. I told my husband about my buttonhole and he looked at me like "What are you talking about and who cares?" So anyway that's how I spent the afternoon.

Great Dorothy, I love it when I make something and it comes out really good. I know the feeling of the looks from Hubby too. That's the way everyone did we when my set of pots arrived and I was walking on cloud 9 and everyone else was saying, "what's the big deal." LOL Go Girl with your sassy self.

I'm got one worse then that. The first time I removed the bottom of my composter and saw dirt instead of household waste I went running into the house and annouced to hubby, "I made dirt". He was neither impressed nor interested!!! Thankfully he is more interested in my sewing projects and gives me honest opinions of what he likes and doesn't like.

I've decided to live forever - so far, so good.
