Fun Hurts
I was SO sick with a cold yesterday that I can’t remember the last time a cold had me down like that. And then we went sledding and I hit my tailbone so hard on a bump that it hurts like crazy when I get up from sitting. I had forgotten how thrilling it is fly down a hill at lightning speed. In spite of all that, I managed to finish my skirt and get most of the way through a top.
My skirt:
This skirt is McCall’s 5390. I love, love, love it. I might have to put it on later when I don’t have to go out in the snow anymore. Obviously, I am going to have to make a top to wear with it…
This is my top so far. I had some facing problems and got as far clipping the curves before I discovered things just weren’t right.
I’ve decided to do away with the facing and try to come up with a creative solution. I am probably going to trim away some of the fabric, stay stitch all over again and use some bias binding.
This is our cat, Mouser, out helping us sled:
She didn’t offer to actually go down the hill with us, but she was there to hang out. She also helped the kids build this snowman:
Hope everyone has a happy New Year!
