Rain Check

I wanted to test out a piece of vintage 60's tubular nylon knit to see if it worked as a skirt.

It was cold enough to wear leggings (finally!) and then I went for checks on every garment that I could:

When Severo saw my outfit, he said, "Wear the Maury jacket!"
[Part of his costume from King Leisure, a film Pat DiNizio of The Smithereens made in 2004].

Haha

"What about the rain?" you ask.
Dramatic clouds during my lunch break:

Turned into a dark, dark sky:

And the rain commenced.
As I walked back into the building, there was even a double rainbow:

Did not locate the pot of gold.

Here's Severo as Maury:

Hey! Different jacket!
We should do a Halloween couple costume as Check Mates

Linking up with Fashion Should Be Fun

Repeats. 

I have a separate blog devoted to them.

They provide me with funds. (I design underwear prints for one of my day jobs).

at Costco. 3/2012

I teach how to create them digitally. (The other day job @ OTIS)

sometimes I'll demo a "how to" on Pattern Recognition

I've been creating them for 30+ years.

I'm working on a line of scarves that utilizes them

as soon as I order sample swatches, you'll be able to buy this print
or get a scarf at my online cargoh store
I might even wear a dress made with this for my art show in April!

I cannot get enough!
