Sunday Funday! While George was out, I caught a pretty sunset. The house was a lot like this moment: Perfectly silent and serene. It was lovely.
Just before he got back with the girls, I started dinner. We had steaks and picadillo style sauce and yellow rice.
After dinner, I finally started on my next sewing project, after setting up my serger, something I've put off for months.
I'm making unpaper (reusable) towels. For whatever awesome reason, the serger came with one spool of brown, so the insides will be brown. Look how much I care.
I bought some last February, and we have used them every single day (as you can see). I love them, and I'm just making my own now. If I can make curtains, I can do this, blindfolded. Except I haven't used a serger since high school and it's kind of scary so I might keep them open on second thought.
While I was upstairs in my studio working on that, I'm just kidding, we don't call it a studio, but maybe I should! It's a balcony. Studio sounds better. Ha. Anyhow, while I was doing that, the most wonderful man in the world was attacking this monster. Oh my goodness kids socks are awful aren't they?? I want to just swoop them into a garbage bag in one quick move and just buy new ones. sigh.
Did you know that the "in" thing right now is to mismatch your socks? Liz has been doing it for a couple of years. It makes me crazy but it would certainly simplify your sock pile.

ReplyDeleteKate, someday I'm allowed to come back. ::cough ASH:: My last Iowa project was knitting. We ought to sew next time!
ReplyDeleteYes, we should definitely bring out needles and things with a bunch of little kids running around. That will be a blast. Let's give them knives too!
ReplyDeleteYes, because most sewing involves loose needles laying around.
