I’m excited! I’m starting a new kilt for my son. I’ll be posting the whole adventure, from fabric to finished swish! The process begins with eight yards of MacPherson Red Muted from Strathmore Woollen Mill in Scotland spread out across the kitchen and into the hallway. So glad I have a long stretch of floor. It makes it easier to do the measuring and mark the pleats.
Can you judge a book from reading a single page? I moderated a fun panel at Minicon. The panelists were randomly given books with the covers concealed. They each took a turn reading page 117 from their mystery book. Then the panelists and the audience speculated what the book was about. We voted if we would read the rest of the book based on that single page. Amazingly, a few people (with great memories) could identify a couple of the titles from just those few words. Afterward I was curious to read page 117 of my own books.
