- Fairly certain that sewing to-do list for this season would be enough to get me committed
- Diagnosis totally out of touch with time and space
- Sometime tomorrow some folks are likely to be bumped from the handmade to Amazon delivered
- About to go into Titanic mode
- Women and children are saved first
- Or in this case sewn for first
- My oldest granddaughter has been invited to a family New Year's Eve party
- This is huge Babsie she said
- We are staying up to midnight
- Grown ups and kids will be there
- Pause
- Really fancy and I mean fancy
- There will be snacks
- So I made her a dress that in her ten year old mind will be glamorous
- Jalie's Bella, super easy
- As sparkly as I could make it
- As to there rest of them the production line has been conveying belt along
- You my people will know exactly what this is
- And what it represents
- In the middle of all of this my husband has decided to learn to sew
- Randomly he bought a Touch and Sew in a cabinet and is in love with it
- Some men buy red sports cars at this stage
- Or dye their hair and decide they haven't lost their touch
- Which is true only in their own minds
- And I guess other men are happy with a Touch and Sew
- He is pinning his patterns down with safety pins
- Which I haven't seen before
- A lot of things I haven't seen before
- You just never know do you
- Not to be dropped from my list is a request for a red velvet jacket with a white fur Peter Pan collar
- Every eight year old should have one
- Someone's mom has been watching White Christmas with the kids again
- How can I not make that too?
- For what a small sliver of life does someone want a white fur Peter Pan collar?
- Can't let that slip by
- In one month we will be on the road in the RV for three months
- If you live in the Southern US and SW I will wave
- We will trade one cocoon with dog to a smaller cocoon
- Still with dog
- I have to pack for that at some point
- Between the shortbread making and the Amazon waiting
- What are the chances that someone would be happy with half a sock?
