Shawlys,

At least I am in good company. But this is how goofy I am:

Don't we all have that one shawl from the past, maybe, that haunts us--the UHG? Well, I just gave up ever owning mine until two weeks ago. (I've seen it for sale twice but it sold for an unbelievable price) It listed, I jumped, paid more than I have ever paid for a shawl and it has been sitting on my dresser for 3 days as I am afraid to open her. I am convinced I will never wear her and once I open the box, the drama is over. I have been dreaming about this shawl for almost two years--my silky/shawly life span, and she waits...

Thanks for letting me share this ridiculous tale....sick puppy.....

You all will be the first to see her!!

Dear sparkle, Yay, congrats on finding your dream shawl! The hunt is part of the fun, but I know when you open the box again, you'll still love her! :heart: Looking forward to seeing you wearing, and enjoying her soon!

Fleurs ended up being the surprise of the past season for me. I didn't expect to like it from the early pictures but now have two colors. I went to H yesterday to check out a few items from the new season and ended up coming home with this beauty. I also saw the hot pink one, which is beautiful, but did not look great on me. Red can be a tricky color for me, but all of the beige in this one makes it look so lovely and bright.

This is so amazing on you, we are twins. What I love about this shawl besides everything is how it picks up the etoupe and cream. Also love the Kimono like design. Thank you for sharing this picture.

Pretty! Love it with your coat. It really highlights your beautiful hair.

So lovely on you, PoliticalGal! :smile1: The light areas, in contrast with the red, make it appear illuminated!
 
Move slowly

Open the drawer (hear the trumpets trilling ?)

Remove the box (suspense building)

Lift the lid (hold your breath here)

Lift back the acid free paper layers carefully

Exhale

There she is:

They object of longing that you have quested after for years

Lift her gently from her slumber like the Sleeping Beauty that she is

Look at the color and detail if the pattern and color

Drape the fabric softly around your neck and THERE!!

At last your UHG

Completely worth waiting for. A fact.

But wait ?

We all want to know what your Grail was?

Can't you share just a clue?

We can guess!


Love this, TT!!! 😜
