Great job, Carrie! There's no turning back, now. Just keep your eye pealed for the next tartan bargain, etc.

Oooo, wax in your chalk, huh? Ouch! Try rubbing over the lines with another piece of tartan. If it's dress tartan, use the lightest part, OK? You don't want to run the risk of bleeding colors. Also, if you know someone with an air compressor that can try blowing it out . . . Anything's worth a try, right? I use Clove (white) waxless tailors chalk and haven't had any problems. You have to get it online at Joann Fabrics. They don't carry it in the stores.

Slàinte!,
