300



This is the 300th post here! Whoo! By far the longest I've lasted on any blog. Heh.

I'm almost done with construction of my jewelry commission. I keep talking about it, I know. I'll have to get some pics up soon so you can see what I've been doing. It's much simpler than most of my work, but it's nice and the mother and daughter like it, so I'm happy.

I didn't do the market this week. I may try to do both next week. I think it will be a lot...but Mom thinks I can because she's my encourager. I quail too often, shrink from things. I'll decide today. It's raining and soppy and the market is outside. So I'm glad I didn't do it.

Finished deconstructing and ironing the thrifted shirts for wristlets. One is a well-known name brand. Very high-quality, everything was french-seamed and the fabric has a wonderful hand to it. (the hand of fabric is similar to the tooth of paper...the feel of it.) I almost want to keep. Maybe I won't use it all.
