Intermittent Sun
The sun is not the determining factor for my comfort. Mostly I like to wear cotton tops. The bottoms are not that important.
Dennis has nothing but cotton tees to wear. His important factor is that they have a pocket for his cigarettes. That is generally why his cell phone is next to his computer in the house. I used to answer it when I would hear it, no more. If its important, they know where he lives.
The warm summer has kept my soap pods in use. Clean clothes is the next best thing to good hot robust breakfast coffee.
My goal is to have my main floor local effort done by noon each day. Of course by the time I roll out of bed at eight in the morning, noon comes quite soon. After that I have free range until supper time.
This afternoon, the studio was put back into an organized state. Extra fabric tucked back into the tote of the color choice. Thread spool also back where it belongs. The most important part of the afternoon was cleaning, oiling and de-fuzzing the sewing machine. I have various picks and tweezers to go underneath the top plate. It is amazing how much can accumulate in the space and time of one quilt top being pieced.
The studio always looks very welcoming when everything is in its place.
I dug out my old protractor after I was done with the tidy, tidy. I wanted to see by using the radius what the top of Ester Schafer’s wood box was. I won’t be ready for some time for finishing as I still have a lot of embroidery to do. Due to the condition of the wooden box, I will be using mat board to some extent for a very flat even top. It is what it is.
Lena used to take a wooden bushel basket and line it with oil cloth complete with the fitted bottom for a laundry basket. That is my goal for the inside of the wooden box. It is what it is.
Supper is Johnsonville pre-cooked beef brats to pair with the cold salads that are left.
Dennis had no great amount of news after his meet and greet at McDonald’s. Too warm for the older bunch to accumulate any.
With that I take my leave. ♥
