pocket project.

several awesome things happened over the weekend.  including but not limited to the following:

1. went home to DC after 2 weeks away.
2. received my photoflex octodome 3' softbox kit!
3. got a new pair of shoes.
4. finally figured out nikon's CLS (creative lighting system) and feel like an idiot for waiting this long.
5. we the pizza night AND taco night.
6. finally delved into the pocket project.  allow me to essplain . . 

i am partial to garments with pockets in them.  when i am out buying clothes, if a dress or skirt does not have pockets i a) get angry - why o' why would a designer eliminate this all-important element?!; and b) see if said garment has side seams and assess whether or not i could add pockets of my own.  which i've been saying i will get around to for about a year now.  therefore, using this very helpful tutorial along with numbers 2, 3, and 4 above, voila! le projet de poche! (french makes "the pocket project" fancy?)
