am I the last one to see this or the first?

Oh I just found this trolling around the Met collection... sure looks like a gaulle to me!!!

Oh no I just made a gaulle tag... guess I really am doomed to make one now. :P

edited to add: While I am still trolling...
Also this fabric is cool.

My vote for koshka_the_cat's next project - pink+green, amazing and definitely not for muggles. Just saying...

Please tell me you are making a gaulle for the Ice Cream Social!

Probally not - my perfect-for-a-gaulle-fabric isn't really ice-creamy. I was thinking a zone jacket... which is what got me on the Met site to research in the first place tonight. Maybe this is a sign though! I'm tempted though to use something else besides my olive and rust colored stripe. I wonder if I have enough of that butter yellow silk taffeta...

Ooooh, a zone jacket would be awesome too!

You are finding so many neat things on the Met site. I'm avoiding it because I have work to do and I know that once I start, I will get stuck there for hours. ;o)

Yeah, wise decision... I didn't mean to spend my whole evening on the site and yet somehow I did! :P

I totally love the Met's site. Now if they would actually display some of the items in the museum....grr...

I agree; but at least there is some way to "see" their collection, online. I wish they'd put out some really good collection catalogues.

At least their website is good... I wish more museums offered such good images and zooming etc.
