On an amazing sewing note - a couple weeks ago, I found some delightful striped knit fabric on clearance at Hobby Lobby. I bought 3 yards. It turns out that you can make 5 infinity scarves out of 3 yards. Who would've thunk?
My co-worker was giving me a hard time about not going to the lake today and opting to sew. Why it didn't bother me... a) I was sewing for a friend! b) One of the infinity scarves is going to be an International sensation! (And if I didn't get it complete, I would have to pay shipping over the pond. Danger-danger!) c) I love staying home. Not all the time. But on Saturdays --> YES! And technically I did "get out" this afternoon. I ran to JoAnn's and bought replacement buttons for my thrift find. And since I had a 50% any regular priced yarn, I bought a huge (12 ounces!) skein of cotton yard to continue on my dish cloth Christmas project. The last items I bought are to construct another tote. It's also for someone who frequently reads the ramblings of yours truly, so my lips are sealed.
A whole morning of sewing is exhausting, so I treated myself to Chipotle's burrito bowl for supper and a smidge bit of Red Mango for dessert.
All in all...
today has been a splendid sort of Saturday!
