Wow.

Thank you, everyone who claimed stuff from yesterday's closet culling sale! I should have totals including postage to all of you by tonight. (I would have done it yesterday afternoon, but lo, the sinus migraine monsters attacked, and I had to retreat to the couch.

In the course of checking the eBay auction for the pink silk velvet waistcoat, I discovered that it is perilously close to what I am willing to bid for it, AND both the Stroppy One and the Infamous BlueJay have said that it is not quite the right shade of pink, and double-breasted anything in silk velvet will look like padded armor. Then the Infamous BlueJay went on to tell me to just save all the damn photos, we will find some nice cupcake pink silk, and she will duplicate it. Um, okay? ::grin::

So the money made from the sale is going toward the memorial tattoo for Mom, which I'm getting in January. (And maybe a day at the spa, so I can spend all day soaking in hot pools and getting scrubbed.)

Again, THANK YOU EVERYONE!

I admit when I saw it I was thinking that was not your usual shade of pink. Hurray for friends who can replicate garments!

yay for friends who sew! I AM one, you see. ;)

I think a memorial tattoo and a spa day is the way to go, yes. *nodnod*

I say, I envy you having a husband with acute colorsense. I have hair of a very middling brown color, and my husband admitted a while back that for years he thought it was black. *facepalm*
