Loathing...

I       LOATHE       SILK HABOTAI!

I remember writing about the silk being very thin and fragile in my last post, however, at that point, I had yet to wage a war against it.  Being a man, and sewing mens clothing, I do not have much any experience sewing silk.  I tried to interface, which only creased the silk onto the interfacing.  I tried to cut the silk out first, but by the time I carefully picked it up off the cutting mat and placed it on the ironing board it had already distorted out of shape.  After an inward debate, I decided to order a leopard print silk charmeuse for the lining.  I just hope I can wrangle the charmeuse and make it work.
