Hemming and Hawing
Literally and figuratively. ;o) I dusted off the sewing machine this afternoon. (I know. I actually sewed something. This blog should really be named something else entirely, considering how rarely I sew.) I finally cut and hemmed some “thrifted” ($1) full-length jeans down to capri length. I’ve been meaning to do it all summer, but […]
Finishing & Starting (?)
This feels surreal… I think I just actually finished the Fuzzy Diamonds Pillow!! (Could I be dreaming?) According to my Ravelry project notes, I started that thing in July of last year, so it’s about time the crazy thing was done.

Not enough blocking and project-photographing, unfortunately… (Maybe posting on this blog again is just the kick in the rear I need to make that happen. The problem is that as much as I enjoy crocheting doilies and taking photographs as separate hobbies, for […]
