Picking up the Flute Player from a mask-building session at school tonight, the director asked if I could make a dress for the show...kind of a poly organzaish over poly silky looking thing, just from what I could see in the bag.
I told her unless it was something I could do tomorrow evening, I was going to have to say no. Because the only other time I have available for sewing is at 2 AM.
So she said she would ask someone else.
What I *didn't* say was, 'You know, if you had asked me in August I could possibly have worked it in.'
I do not like telling people 'No'. I really don't. But...sometimes, that's the only reasonable and logical thing to do.
Meantime, progress made today on the Loud Jacket: Zero.
I'm telling myself 'No', too...
But I *do* have tomorrow night available. We'll see if I can get to the sewing machines...
It really is ok to say no. In this case, I'm happy for you that you did.
