It was more funner than I thought it would be, except I am only at the easy "cut out the pieces" stage which is easier than all the much harder "put the pieces together and not make it look like crap" stages. 
When you read the instructions, even the ones in English, it still sounds like you really ought to leave these things to someone who knows what they are doing. The cutting out part is easy in the instructions, the other parts have far more words, some of which are in bold which leads me to believe they are important. No matter, I plan to forge ahead.The material is a really nice weight and drape.
It is a wool silk blend and should be extremely comfortable.
Wish me luck all you fiber types.

That's sewing. I got nothin' for you. Now if you were knitting, I could offer lots of constructive encouragement.
I offer you lucky (.)(.).
Did you line up your grain lines with the selvage? Make sure you stay consistant on your seam allowances, and also. If you need a good cussing, just let Grace know. She knows where to find me. (. )( .)
Thanks Naomi. Finally some useful advice! Yes I lined up the grain lines (with the woven pattern it was really easy), and I haven't got to the even seam allowances yet, but I did make sure to cut accurately on the pattern lines so that whan I follow the edge on the machine I'll get an accurate seam placement.
I'll let you know if I need any cussin, but I'll probably just supply my own &*%$# as needed.
Oh, and thanks for noticing the subtle formatting required to make the tagline. Your sis has it wrong. (. )( .)
are you discriminating against small (.)(.)? How about these apples, then: ( x )( x )
OK, lets just leave it right here... All of the following will be acceptable:

(x)(x)
( X )( X )
OK?
Bob. He LOVES the boobies.
Except the blue footed kind. How would you make that with icons?
