Well, after spending some time playing computer games myself, getting a bit bored, and looking for other "activities", I found my colored pencils and markers!! Yay! (Kid-in-candy-shop effect). I had gotten this fashion design activity kit a few years ago that came with a pad of blank "model" outlines and a booklet of ideas. Well, the booklet was lost, or went into hiding, not terribly long after I got it, but the pad of pages made it's way to a convenient spot. I had made one design when I first got the kit, another about a year later, and then found it again today. Well, I went to town, let me tell ya. First, I drew out 4 designs, and started taking pictures (lol) but they weren't showing up because the lines were so faint... thus, the excitement of finding the colored pencils!! I could color them, and then take pictures. :)

| "Tie" Skirt |
And so I did, and I love them!
This one is probably my favorite of the day, because it is a project that I want to start right away. I've seen a "tie" skirt done before, and the more I think about it, the more I love it! (If you have any ties that you would like to donate to said project, I'd love to take them off your hands! ;))
Gary really likes that I was designing clothes (surprisingly) which was more of a I-like-the-way-this-looks-and-these-colors-are-pretty, and appreciates that this is something that I could really enjoy.
He asked if he needed to get me a pin-up modeler mannequin.
I replied... "Yes, please". hehe.
