After that, plus a massage and a facial, we could barely walk. But we soldiered on to Bottega Cucina, an adorable restaurant hiding in a strip mall down the street from the spa. Two delicious lunches later and we were ready to hit the cloth. And what fabulous fabrics we found!
Upon arrival at Osgoods, I generally dive headfirst into the remnant bin. This time we scored a number of great coral and navy samples to play with. And then... jackpot!
We found several bolts, in the exact right color, with 1920s prints!
A great find.
When we got home, we of course had to pull all the fabric out and see what could be done with it. We also experimented with several table setting ideas. First the orange:
Then the orange/navy stripe. Mom looks like she's wearing the world's longest necktie. She also looks really tired of this wedding stuff. I think I might have been overambitious with the itinerary, even for her.
We finally settled on navy, which brings a nice contrast to the orange/coral of the china and the flowers, which will be coral and white dahlias.
Not too shabby for a Girls' Day Out!
World's longest necktie = Truth!
