She Was A Showgirl

Meet Lola.


She likes 70's music, extra dirty martinis, and long walks on the beach.

Yes, Lola arrived today. I went through hell and highwater to retrieve her from the delivery company, so our relationship seems to have started out on a contentious note. I have no doubt she'll make me earn every small victory I have with her.

This is what we did tonight:


I wish the fabric was clearer -- it's all Japanese and so cute.


You can't tell, but the lining of the bags are orange triangles, fluffy blue and white clouds, and yellow polka-dots.

And this is how the dining room area looked when I was done:


Not quite up to my usual standards, but I was pooped by the time I finished. (FYI - I didn't drink out of the bottle. I was just holding my glass as I took the pic.)

  1. Does she like Pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain? Or is that the wrong song?

  2. I kinda like the image of you throwing back gulps of wine from the bottle while hunched over Lola sewing. Hee.
