LACMA and fabric

[aimeekitty]

I went to LACMA yesterday and saw the Klimt paintings they and on display as well as some Sargent... neither of which I'd seen in person before. WOW. Somethings just have to be seen in person. Klimt's paintings were very large (about as tall as a person or larger) and had such beautiful blue undertones and outlines in many of the women's faces... not to mention in his gold painting, it had so many 3d embellished areas. Seeing his work in a tiny little 2d calendar just really doesn't compare. Sargent's also was much looser than I expected... only making me envy his talent even more. -_- So beautiful...!

Time to pick out some goofy fabrics with Aimee! You know the drill, most of these would be for making a sundress (probably 1952 style) or a circle skirt. Basically, casual, or "day out" wear. Which are the cutest to get, and on the other side... which are SCARY and I shouldn't buy?

--Black japanese kitties
--Red kimono girls
--Peach Bunnies
--Goldfish
--Seagulls
--Parisian Style
--Kimura Kuties
--Sweet Dreams <--- there is no question about this one, I'm definitely getting it!!

I like em all except the parisian print. I like the print, I wonder if it might be too obnoxious on a dress though. It's hard to tell exactly but the others look like they'll be more sedate in huge swatches of fabric.

Hey if you order, lemme know. I looove that kitty one. =D
