Thanks ladies! He was in a bit of a mood, because he sits there when he wants to be let out, but I was ignoring him and instead taking pictures... :D- Drappa

I almost forgot, but also recently got a custom belt made by Cassie Stephens on Etsy. http://www.etsy.com/shop/cassieart She was just wonderful to work with and very charming, not to say fast! I really wanted a turtle buckle, and she made it happen.- Drappa

Thank you! I do as well, but hardly ever find anything that early, normally it's lots of 70's and 80's stuff. I was so excited!- Drappa

This weekend we went trawling the shops and charity shops in Winchester, when I saw this great St Michael dress, in perfect condition. It fits like it was made for me, but in typical fashion I had already spent all my money this month on sewing patterns etc., so my wonderful husband bought it...- Drappa

I'm on my phone so can't post photos, but in no particular order mine are Meryl Streep, Zooey Deschanel, Liv Tyler, Ellen Degeneres, Rachel Bilson, and I agree on Vivien Leigh. I also quite like Emma Watson. ETA Pics: -
The ones that got away
Thanks for the sympathies ladies :) I hunted down some fabric that is very similar to the fabric of the dress, but can't buy it until I have some more money. But then it'll be my next project. The dress seller is traven7 on Etsy, maybe they are willing to sell that necklace!- Drappa

The ones that got away
I am so sad about these selling, especially the hat and the dress, but I am determined to make one just like it. I just couldn't afford them now. The pattern was marked as a housecoat and sold for very little in the end.- Drappa

The most frightening motion pictures?
Yes, but in that case it is a like a drop of water on a hot stone. Maybe I am just a pessimist, but I don't find those types of films uplifting.- Drappa

The most frightening motion pictures?
I completely agree with The Road being the scariest movie, because it still haunts me, especially the scene with the half butchered bodies in the basement of that house. My husband dragged me to see that as he loved the book, and I should have known better. He was actually terribly disapointed...- Drappa

I feel your pain, I have had bad luck with Ebay and Etsy lately, including stains, bleach stains, wrong measurements and pulls or snags on knits. In most cases I don't even want to send it back because I'd lose the return shipping and it's too annoying. Ebay should really sort that out!- Drappa
