Well, it's done. For now, at least, the manuscript is out of my hands. Gosh, that was hard to let go of this time around. Thanks so much to those of you who sent such kind words yesterday. I wrote that post yesterday with the intention of taking a break and remembering to breathe. And the byproduct was a wonderful, much needed pep talk from you lovelies. So I thank you. Just what I needed.
And I also needed to do this. After the marathon work session was done, and the babes were asleep, my head was still buzzing. I headed to my studio to 'work it out' on these, based on yesterday's vintage smock - the red one in the front of this photo. (You can see the back of the smock here, if you're wondering how it's put together).
And then when those were done (I told you my head was buzzing), I made an even bigger one.
And today? Today I will play "Castle," and "Doggie Piano" and "Peekaboo". And then tonight - Oh, right. Tonight I will SLEEP.
