hom spun::japanese sewing book

Japanese craft books are true love, in my opinion. If I had a million dollars I could easily spend the majority of it on these Japanese craft books and fabric/supplies to make everything in them. I got this new book called "hom spun: sewing book." It's delightful. I have brown linen for the wrap dress, but there are so many other garments in there I want to make. Which one should I start with? Hm.... it's a tough decision. Especially seeing as I have like, NO time to work on anything for myself right now. {more pictures here.}

Also, I got my heirloom tomato plants and seeds! I'm a little nervous about this garden business. But hey, there is a first for everything right? I hope I don't kill anything. Worse, will anything actually grow?? We shall see... It's almost the weekend and my friend Alanna is finally back from France! She's making dinner tonight. I imagine something delicious and utterly French. I can't wait. This weekend is another shape-note sing as well as barn dance in the evening. I can see it's going to be a good weekend. Later!
