my week to date
monday night: started my fabric silkscreening class at lillstreet. i took an instagram snap of these samples from one of the quilting classes while i was waiting in the hallway for the instructor to arrive. love that faux bois fabric!
wednesday: went to the salvo. bought a tacky silver and gold 80s purse, a rainbow stripe 80s dolman sleeve cropped sweater, and a pile of sheets. some sheets will be used in my fabric silkscreening class (a cheap way to acquire yardage!) and others to add to my growing collection to be used for a making a vintage sheet quilt...
wednesday night: the sky last night was so very gorgeous. this is the view from our apartment, looking south.
thursday: we got a big dump of snow today. it's been a mild winter to date...i half wondered if it would really ever come at all!
bill cunningham new york
bill cunningham new york: probably the best (documentary) film i have watched in a good, long time. i was smiling throughout the whole film, all 1.5 hours of it. he's just so amazingly dedicated, funny, self-effacing, driven, and earnest. endearingly nerdy and obsessive in his drive to document what people are wearing RIGHT NOW. and he's so spry and spunky for 80! i wish I had half his energy, and i'm 37! love him so very much, he's definitely one of my personal heroes. the link above is just a trailer on YouTube, but if you've got Netflix streaming you can see the whole thing in toto... *** have you seen it the film? what did you think of it?
