Extra! Extra! Bustle seen flying through the air!!

Well! That was a bit of an adventure! I was doing the grommets/washers on the bustle stays out on the deck of our 4th floor apartment so as to not bang on the floor directly above someone's living room. The timer went off for the laundry, and I stopped my grommeting to go change it. When I came back, the bustle was gone!! I flew to the railing and looked down. There it was in someone's bushes!! How embarrassing!

I ran down and got it. So the lesson is: Don't leave your bustle untethered outside or it will act like a sail and catch the wind!
