Fresh air!

It was soooo nice this weekend.  I had the windows open, did some cleaning, went out to eat with friends 3 times (dim sum, middle eastern, and sushi), started on a shirt reconstruction project (should be done tonight), watched Elliot hang out by the open window and Molly sunbathe in the yard.

All this good weather did make me realize that I’m a little pale…I should join my dog and get some sun in the middle of the yard.

Vintage Button Swap

Some vintage buttons I got from this swap.

I’m looking forward to the (sunny and warm) weekend.  I have all these things I want to make…mainly a dressform so I can start making/reconstructing clothes and baby stuff for friends (quilts, bibs, drool cloths). 

Bye bye rain

Molly’s wet footprints on the porch.  Cuteness.

Dear Grandma,

I made this doll for you.  I know you probably won’t recognize me if you see me now but maybe this doll will remind you of the 2 little granddaughters who came to live with you almost 30 years ago.  You used to braid our hair just like the doll’s and put us to bed.  I hope she will bring you some comfort and happiness.  I’ll come visit you soon.

Love,

Breakfast at the desk

Wow, I just realized that sometimes I eat 2 meals at my desk a day…TWO!

Anyway, I’ve been working on an important project since the weekend.  I hope to post it tomorrow.
