The Word.

I never really need an excuse to purchase new book. In fact, I am privately amused when I make excuses for why I buy a particular tomb of knowledge. Case in point, I've kind wanted a(nother) book on the night's sky, because the only little one I had was not full of enough OMGNEBULAS for my liking. It just so happened that I am currently tutoring my charges in Astronomy. What is a girl to do????

Atlas of the night's sky. I got it on sale. Go me.

Also, in true research style, I ventured to my local library and demolished the collect of costuming books, ranging around the 1960s era for Project Powertrain Warranty. I found a particularly awesome one, that was a collection of pages from the Sears catalogue from 1960-1969. I find it amusing of the things that have changed, and the things that have come back again - fabulously.

Goal for tonight; make list of things needed at fabricland since they're on sale this weekend. Reread through pattern again, because one of those steps doesn't make sense yet. Watch Face off on Space?

Howl.

1960s Ideas

Simplicity Pattern 3833

Looking into the 1960s style. Looking through my Smithsonian book and some casual online stuff, I seem to favour the mini dress style. Not quick British Invasion GoGo style, but its seem the seasm lines and style in that pattern is characteristic of the era? Mod style, I think I read but by no means researched. Would go sleeveless for sure, hemline.....middling. Not as short as it might be in few D, but I want it above the knee for sure. Pattern seems to work for curvy woman, by the reviews.

Think that's the only Sim-Pat of that era. I'll check on the others now too.
