Monday more
Sep. 27th, 2016 03:57 pmI think I can give this day a check mark. I got a fair amount of stuff done. I did the laundry and got it folded and put away and then set about reshuffling the closet to make good room for the fabric. Good room, in my case, means room to see the stuff - my clothes and the fabric - with room to spare.
The Goodwill hamper was full and I added another hamper full to the pile so that dictated a trip. Once I make the 'Goodwill' decision, it's best if I get it out of the house right away. So I filled the car and headed out and did NOT go into the Goodwill store and buy more stuff. Go Me.
I got a doll made and a bunch of new faces made.

First, I draw the eyes and mouth on with removable red pen. Then I sew the felt eyes on. This pile is at that stage. Next is clipping all the threads followed by redoing the mouth in permanent marker and ironing. The removable pen marks disappear with heat. Now I have white and off white and blue and purple with a couple of reddish browns. I need more brown faces but i'm out of browns in the fabrics. Next time.
And I had delicious leftover pizza for lunch. Tonight is chilli and a corn muffin and the baseball game.
Not a bad day at all.
