Present
Last week, after finally convincing myself that it was really really really ready to go, I sent KCC3 off to the printer. This is always the point where I start to get a bit queasy. It’s the combination of knowing that any mistakes I’ve made are now destined for immortality and the act of writing a very large check. The combo is not reassuring.
So I gave myself Friday off and headed out to secure a bit of a present. I’ll make proper introductions soon. But for now, I feel I can safely say I’m in love, and I’m not the first person to give this thing a good home.
Congrats on sending your book off! Is it a dress maker dummy?
Well done on the book. I think it’s a dressmaker’s dummy too; probably a Wolf or something similarly classy (unlike my red Singer one)
That was my guess too. Can’t wait to meet the present, looks like fun. I love all those little threads caught in the wheels.
I’m sure that is a little nerve-wracking, sending off the book, but that means it’s one step closer to all of us! Congrats.
Yes, I too think it is a stand for a dressmaker’s dummy, how exciting, but not quite as exciting as KCCIII will be!
Congratulations on sending it off and commiserations for the big fat cheque writing!
