Went to the fabric store today and got some great fabrics for pillows. I have to get all these pillows done this week. Some are from the ideas I got in Paris so I'm really excited about constructing them.

I took Eva, my 4 year old, to the ballet, Cinderella, today. I got so many ideas from the costumes and sets. It was beautiful. It also gave me the inspiration to decorate her room. The only problem is that none of the fabrics I have will work in the newly inspired room. Isn't that how it always goes?

I'm really excited about getting this all done this week. The pictures of Paris for the show home walls are ready and I'm picking them up tomorrow night. I can't wait to see them.

The above picture was from the Maison Objet show in Paris.

Getting back to normal

Today was a much better day. Had a little drama in the morning-non work related, but we got a top treatment done for a client.

She gave me the fabric and a picture. I love not having a pattern, no really. Almost anyone can take a pattern and make something look decent but when you have to analyze a photo and get the proportions and details right, it is such a challenge. It also helps me perfect my pattern making skills.

All the kids were back at school except Sarah, my almost 2 year old. She is our little workroom "helper". She has a playroom off the workroom and her own ironing board and iron. She will pick up scraps and "iron" them for us. Maybe she will want to follow in her mother's footsteps.

My passport came in as well as my electronic badge for the Maison Objet' show in Paris. One more week to go.

I have a little more work to do tonight to get caught up so I guess I will make a starbucks run and get busy.
