We went to a fancy dinner tonight and guess what I was looking at. Men's shirts. At one point I leaned over and whispered to Ray, "I want that man's shirt." and I subtly nodded my head toward an elegant pale green and tan striped shirt. Ray looked quite surprised and puzzled, then he got it. "Oh yeah," he said. "The shirt. Nice. Want me to make him an offer?" Nah. That would be rude. And possibly misunderstood.
funny! Are you basically dyeing a range of colours? or are you dyeing a specific pallet(sp) of colours because you know you work with them the most?

ReplyDeletewe will only worry when you start running men down and snatching the shirts off their back.
Are these Rit dyed, also?
ReplyDeleteAw, go ahead, at our age being misunderstood could be fun!

ReplyDeleteSandy, I am dyeing these to mainly get a range of color and value, but I keep laying them all out together and deciding what is needed and I am heavily influenced by what I like together. And yes, all Rit dye. I am mixing color from a limited few colors: red, yellow, blue, brown and black.
ReplyDeleteToo funny!
ReplyDeleteha ha ha! There was an episode of Project Runway where the contestants had to create new fashion from the clothes that they took off people in the street. Very funny watching them come up to people and ask them for a shirt off their back! Maybe you should come up with a line that cannot be refused...
ReplyDeleteAw - you chickened out on that one. Too bad - he might actually have given it to you:-)
ReplyDeleteoh too funny! one of the men who just last month left our office after 10 years, used to wear this brown shirt that i absolutely drooled over. on his last day, i told him i still want that shirt when he's done with it! he thinks i'm nuts.... sigh... :)
ReplyDeleteI was coveting a fellow quilter's skirt today and wondering if she'd notice if I snuck up behind her and chopped out a piece. I think she'd understand if I made her an offer for it, but it was so gorgeous her price would be too high, I'm sure!
