i quickly stitched together some mod curtains last night during the commercials for the west wing.  they still need to be hemmed, but i couldn't wait to hang them up.  i took this picture in the morning with the foggy light peeking through.  i noticed them from the street when i got home from work today & they looked inviting.  i was using scraps for the tan part from this weird velvety blanket a roommate left behind so i was hoping the bottom part would be shorter, i think it's a little overwhelming, but it does match the room.  the pattern is called "wurlitzer" & i adore it.  it would make an amazing dress...

teresa said i could use her new little gocco to print something & i want to make litle valentines.  i'm such a Tom Waits dork, but i don't care, i've always wanted to make blue valentines!  i dream about it every year & it never gets done.  i've been drawing this tattoo bluebird, like a sailor jerry bird, with a ribbon in it's mouth.  sometimes i forget how much i like to draw, mostly i just don't know what to draw.  so i draw coffee cups.
