Daily Notes for Thursday, May 15th. Lots of sunshine here in Maine...64 degrees. Waiting for Tru Green..


 While watching Bones, Season Two......I gathered a few scraps and made some squares... this was number three.  Needs one more border...or more and will become something larger. I like the yellow green cloth but will look to see if I have a patterned piece in that color...before sewing.  All done by hand. right side strip needs a trim.

I could finish faster with the machine but then...what would I do?  Hand sewing fills more space. I don't have a book to read.....how that happened is a mystery to me.  I do recall having a British baking show book...  have read it several times- I think I could read it again-----after Tru Green...

And I have very very large storage tubs (multiple- perhaps a dozen) of colorful cloth in the sewing room sorted by color... and it's fun to go looking every so often......and Find Something Wonderful. I think a photo tomorrow will entertain all of you.....of the shelving etc.

At some point I might just sew all these various squares together to make a Very Crazy Quilt sort of thing. Before this- I made them into Potholders as gifts....but everyone I know has a couple already and no one USES them.  Still unwashed...   I could also make placemats.  Mine are getting dull and grungy.

Son found a full box of plastic gloves in the Jeep.  Husband.  No clue as to why but then....even if we did figure it out- wouldn't make sense.  I might keep them...or they will go off to Goodwill. Would be fun to fill with helium and have waving on the porch or mailbox.......the thought of that makes me laugh.

Hand Balloons.

On that note of Whimsey..... BONES Season Two.  Yesterday it was Christmas Repeats. Dead Santa.
