Drags Friends Along

I'm doing that 'thing' I do. I'm not sure how to describe it. Green Cat Mama says I have an "aura" that sucks people in. My trusted allies have nick named me "Drags Friends Along". Unka says I can make unusual things seem like a good idea. I dunno. I just get really excited and I feel like my skin is practically crackling with creative excitement. Then I bump into someone kindred spirit who gets snared by one of my visions and it becomes like a covalent bond. Then I crackle even harder.

Right now I can barely contain myself. I sparked with a few artisans recently and I'm terribly excited about sucking them into the world of Italian costuming. goodie, goodie, goodie! muh-ha ha ha!

Of course I still don't have a vision for my Ropa's under bits, but that's okay. I'll forage ahead and even if I don't drool for my own project, I'm very excited about mentoring some other folks.

Do-dah, do-dah.

Happy holidays, all.

OK, you can drag me along...

I'm thinkin' I might like to whip out a quick Italian by 12th Night to surprise their incipient majs because I origianlly told them I wasn't planning to make anything... I don't know if I'll actually have time, so I still don't want to make any promises... ;-)

Anyway, to be honest I haven't been paying much attention to what they're up to--can you give me some guidance on what period they are shooting for and maybe send me some links to get me started? Or if you have any of your lecture material soft copy that you can send me, that'd be awesome!! I already have some red brocade that's not quite "right" for a cotehardie but I think it'll do for this project, so I'd like to get started this weekend if possible.

thanks!

I really, truly, and honestly cannot wait 'til I'm done with my degree. :)
