Great Ideas from the 80's Part Deux

You simply must read the philosophy printed here.

I can't believe I found the actual brochure in my stash (which was the cleaned out stash at that!) of this concept of Multiples. Modern Modulars, o so Mel! This is going to revolutionize my wardrobe for the second time.

Um, well not exactly like these pictures...would you wear tennies with that outfit? I would if my figure looked like that. Hmm, working on it.

I think you can click on these and they will appear larger, for a closer inspection. Or not.

These instructions came with the garments, in case your imagination didn't stretch this far.

Part deux: Yesterday Dave and I drove up to Salem WI to see Kay Sorensen, famed quilter and former quilt store owner who had donated her stash of cotton interlock to this project of mine. Last month I merely mentioned the desire for bright colors of these knits and out of the thin blogosphere Kay says, "Take mine!!"

We share the joy of an empty shelf being almost as thrilling as filling it with new stuff, if you can follow that thought. So in trade Kay got three pieces of my special edition cottons, and a loaf of No Knead Bread, thus trading a bag of delicious calories for the proposed new figure I am working on.

Wait till you see the finished outfits. I cannot start today however. We are going to a wedding, and then tomorrow I start prepping for my colonoscopy Monday. Can it get any better around here?
