I realize I am giving a play by play...lol...but fabric has been washed and will be prepared and assembled, hopefully today, and I plan to have it in the mail to sistahdebbra on Monday. I'll send it Priority mail so you should have it no later than next Thursday. I love this....it is going to be so pretty! I am truly sorry that you didn't get your original top but I hope this one will turn out to be a close second for you, Crafty. You did such beautiful embroidery on my top and everyone elses that I just felt you deserved something special for your effort. I have such a collection of Geisha's and I'm glad I chose these fabrics for yours! Enjoy!
