Getting Stuff Done

Have done the annual cull of the fabric stash. Filled a decent-sized box with fabric I've fallen out of love with, will never use, or just can't remember what I wanted it for. Also contributing a few craft books and magazines and several dozen patterns to Costume College's Bargain Bazaar next week.

Inspired by the momentum of Getting Stuff Done, I went through the Mound'O'Stuff that's been on the sewing nook floor for several months, and got it cleaned up, cleared out, and de-cat-haired. I'm sure the cats are mourning the loss of Another Soft Thing To Lie On.

Onward to felt flower crafting.

Jars and Felt

Four more quarts and one pint of tomatoes cooling in the pressure canner (love of my life; it cuts an hour off tomato processing time); if they all seal, it'll be 16.5 quarts put up this weekend. Yay!

While Wonderful Husband was clearing his electrical homework off the dining room table, I stabilized the neck of that dress I haven't gotten around to sewing yet. Then I cut out strips of felt and made the first four sample flowers for the felt and rickrack flowers class I'm teaching this weekend. Chrysanthemum, zinnia, carnation, and rose, all done as rolled strips.
