Not a movie star

My sister went to see The Great Gatsby tonight. She watched with eagle eyes and bated breath, but while there was a hankie in the movie, it was not either of the ones that we had embroidered.  :'(

It was fun to be involved and to have the anticipation that something I made might be included in a movie. It wasn’t, but that’s ok.  🙂

I don’t think there will ever be a “next time”, but then I never expected there would be a “this time”, either!

    Oh, what a bummer that is! I was so hopeful for you. We actually never had time to go see it, due to my husband’s work schedule. It was a beautiful hankie though – I wonder where it ended up. It might end up in another movie later on!

    What a shame 🙁 No reason to see it now….

    The hankie in the movie had a circle motif, and the flowers appeared to have an orange hue to them. Doesn’t match either of our hankies. : (
