Thank you for all your warm and wise words on the last post. Dr Blog prescribed me blogging-lite with a little fasting period to kick start things. I think it has done the trick.
And in my period of abstinence, I got stuff done. Want to see?
Yes, the Clothkits Trellick Skirt, which has been waiting patiently for me to sew it up all summer. Worth hanging on for though.
Good to see you - nice skirt!!!!

Fab skirt! and fab to see you! I just noticed your new activity on your blog on mine because YOU are on the list of people who keep me sane!
It is incredible how much gets done away from the computer...but you're welcome at any of my door frames anytime. Except I'd avert your eyes if you chose my daughters bedroom! The mess!

you skirt is AMAZING!

excellent skirt, looks good with the boots too, I think better than the way Clothkits show it on their site :) Great to see you are still peaking :D

I am going to pretend not to notice that you are in the room until you are a little further over the threshold.
(Fab skirt there, Ms Domesticali)

Glad you're back! I think blogging is about sharing, connection and community. If one feels unable to share any more - for whatever reason, then it's time to stop. I'm glad you have more to share! x

Lovely to see you. As lovely as that skirt - which is fab. Well done you. x

I am glad that you peeked around the door frame. You have been very creative in your few days of abstinence. What other skills do you have up your sleeve?!!

great skirt (great figure too!). Glad that Doctor blog gave you some helpful advice!

You've done a great job on that skirt! I think it would look good with a dark brown top too, as well as that turquoisey one you're sporting in this picture.

Georgeous skirt. I keep seeing these Clothkits sets turning up everywhere. Perhaps I should try one.
Posted by: Julia | 15 September 2008 at 12:51
oooh! I love this. Nice job. Isn't it crazy how much you can get done when you're not online? :)
Posted by: misschris | 16 September 2008 at 20:16
Oh I love that skirt too. I have had the Rob Ryan one sat in its box on my desk all summer. Might get get it made in time for summer '09...if i'm lucky.
