May 21

Today's exercise took place along Antique Row in Canoga Park, where sister and I scoured the vintage stores for clothes and textiles. We each came away with a fabulous lightweight coat -- this is sister's. It's linen, in natural colours, with embroidery. Mine is lime green and white and kinda 60s. Nice!
When we got home we dyed some of the cotton yarn we bought yesterday. Yummy :-)

Beautiful colors. I think Sister should bring some home for show and tell. Can't wait to see it knitted up.

The coats sound fabulous, and i love the colours on the dyed stuff.

Lovely drawing. Looks like the decorations on the coat really lent themselves to your style of drawing
