Clovis says thank you for the birthday wishes. Today was also a big day for Clovis; I had promised him that when I got a new job, he would get a new bow tie. (Clovis is something of a dandy.) So today, we went to Nancy's Sewing Basket to visit the Ribbon Room and browse antique ribbons.


The Stroppy One indulging Clovis' demands to be allowed to drive.


Clovis selecting the new ribbon.

Tonight, I make the new bow tie from it.

Oh, and [personal profile] linneakou, you asked about didn't Clovis have his very own LJ? Yes, he does, but he hasn't felt like updating it in ages. [personal profile] prettyshrub asked if I'd ever explained where Clovis got his name from: he's named for a very sarcastic young dandy from the stories of Saki (H. H. Munro). This is a handy clicky-link to Project Gutenberg for the Chronicles of Clovis collection, if you want to read the stories. (And you really should, because they're delightfully acerbic and witty.)

Just a fair warning, I might have to doodle Clovis in a nice dandy suit sometime this week! That ribbon is a pretty one.

I love Gutenberg. So many wonderful books I'd never have the money to actually buy are accessible now.

I love the ribbon. Dark purple is Clovis' color.
