- Packing now for a six day sewathon with my local guild
- When I emerge I should have all my new season's Jalies done
- And maybe the birthday present for my son-in-law's birthday made
- It was his birthday yesterday
- Remind me too to get cracking on those napkins for Christmas
- You know Christmas 1992
- Fired off the first of my weekly newsletters last night
- It's intended for just learning to sewers
- Send me a message if you want one
- This side project is dedicated to my daughter
- And a young girl I met in Kansas
- She couldn't afford my sessions so waited outside in the hall to ask me questions
- I talked to her at my breaks and instead of lunch
- I tried to share what patterns don't
- Just a little hint can make a difference between thinking it's you and knowing it's them
- I am looking forward to uninterrupted sewing this week
- Life has interruptions
- Daisy is so happy to be home
- And walk her route
- I hear the golf course will open soon
- Also hear that there are new sand trap rules
- That mean everyone doesn't have to wait all day while I take 25 tries to get it out of there
- My policy right now is to golf with only my husband who would golf with the dog if she would go
- And folks who have an excellent sense of humor
- And think conversation on the course is OK
- This narrows it down quite rapidly in the golfing world
- I am considering returning a bit to wovens
- I have been making things in linen and cotton for family
- And damn it's nice to press
- The smell of steam is one of life's most satisfying pressures
- Thank goodness I have given up eating the Easter eggs
- Mainly because I can't find any more
- My husband is planning his vegetable garden
- Another hint I have returned to Nova Scotia
- Can't plant until after the first full moon in June
- He says that means no risk of frost
- It takes skill to make a 10 day growing season work
- I want him to plant celery again
- The fresh stuff has real taste
- Not like those pale rolls of woody newsprint you get at the store
- I also want more rhubarb
- Next to pickled herring rhubarb is my favourite food
- This says something but not sure what
- I am distracted now by wondering if I have enough navy thread for the retreat
- For the first time in my life I am doing a capsule
- Around one base colour
- Better check
- Will post pictures during the week
- Now where's the thread?
