among the many errands i had to make, included a trip back to divi. i've forgotten how long i haven't been there, and how i used to be there almost weekly at some point. not much has changed there really, my "suki" watch your car guy still gives me prime parking space, mr. ong and curly-haired girl in my favorite printed cotton fabric store are still there. and as hot as it was that day, i found myself enjoying the walk along ilaya, remembering what i loved about going to divi in the first place: the eye candy, the cheap finds, the overwhelming variety of things around you....
so yes, i ended up buying a few P30 a yard fabrics on the street that caught my eye.... a rainbow striped thick cotton, satin zebra print, and a brown and light blue floral canvas! i bought a few yards to maybe make into ottoman covers?, re-upholster a chair with?, or into a new floor pillow/dog bed for luc?.... (not that i don't already have more than enough fabrics lying around the blackhole that is white plains)
but what i reaaaally went hunting for in divi was a frock fabric i could use to make "padded walls" for my dressing room set! and i found it in a nice home fabric store in tutuban (where i should take you!). lots of nice fabrics at very affordable prices. here's what my set looked like :)
bagasbas was quite hectic too - in between helping with organzing stuff, surfing, playing frisbee and watching other competitions, the only time i got to really relax and do nothing was on sunday (after i had literally burned my eyes out!). so i stayed in our big "kubo with papag", listening to romeo lee's turntable and records! it was quite a trip...
so yes i'm back and will see you soon!!! what happened in misibis?
