Calling all leopards...

It got to be too much, I could no longer resist and started a pinterest board of 18th century leopard wear. But I sadly have found ZERO women. anyone have any portraits of women in faux, real, trim, whole garments or other leopard silliness?  Hook a girl up!






Because looking at leopard print breeches is much more productive than sewing.

This is why I never finish anything

Well known fact I have adult ADHD, I wasn't diagnosed as a kid, take no medication, and the vast majority of the time I'm flighty but functional. But this evening is a prime example as to why I suck at costuming.

-Tell Judy I must sign off FB as I HAVE to sew sequins on Rob's waistcoat (deadline fast approaching)
-Gather supplies and sit on the couch, see dirty dish from dinner.
-Stand back up and take dirty dish to sink, pass new silver tea set
-"Well the tray is the only thing I haven't polished yet, I should do that so it's done and I can be done with it.
- Spend 30 min scrubbing tiny crevices of tray (odd part of ADHD I do hyper focus on tiny things..just never the things I should)
-wash tray, washy dishes, wash counter
-admire tea set
-SHIT I'm supposed to be sewing sequins!
-Sit back down.
-Computer glunks, maybe it's important!...it's not
-FINALLY sit and FORCE myself to sew sequins for 20min, feel like my skin is crawling.

I got half of one side done. Then I told myself I could get up and do my online hw for religion. Then I MUST go back to sequins. Focus Robin Focus.
