I know Gil and I have been absent for awhile but it has been a sad month for us both so we are going to wrap up the year a little early. So we hope you all have a happy and stylish holiday season. See you in 2017.

Gil is thankful for his toys, food and soft bed-not so much for his turkey hat. And he would be really thankful to Santa if he brought him sunglasses.

Gil is mad for plaid. Or...maybe he is just secretly mad I'm dressing him up but either way, he looks dashing. What do you think?

Yesterday I asked if there is a difference between a tartan and a plaid and there is and it is interesting (I think.) All plaids and tartans are comprised of stripes (in varying sizes and colors) that meet at a 90-degree angle. We start heading into 'tartan' territory by looking at the geometry on the pattern. With most every tartan, the pattern on the stripes running vertically is exactly duplicated on the horizontal axis too. Basically, this matching pattern in both directions will create a grid. The warp and weft threads are then woven in a two-over-two "twill" pattern. When looking at a simple plaid, you'll notice that the stripes — either in color, size, or pattern — are not the same in both directions. (House Beautiful)

So how did the First Ladies of the last 50 years deal with such an opportunity or, in s...
