Hello, my friends

First, thanks for the well-wishes in the last post.

Although I enjoy hearing the owls hooting at night, and the eagles calling in the morning, I do miss my friends. It is a lonely life, out in the country.

My running is improving, but I was a bit too lazy about it last week, and slacked off. The week before that I was visiting my grandmother and only ran one day. Wah. That's my fault though.

I have finished some knitted things, but I have been working on the sewing mostly.

Nearly finished a bag, although I am not happy with it. If you look closely you can see the pins. I am very proud of making the pleats though.



Made a tote bag out of a batik that I wasn't wild about. Misread the instructions and screwed up on one of the sides, so the bottom panel is a little off, but it isn't bad.



Made some kitchen towels with a decorative stitch, just to practice sewing in a straight line.



I can barely walk in a straight line on most days (just clumsy, folks), so I'm not sure why I expect to be able to sew in a straight line.

I think I might try to apply for a specialist position at the nearest Target since my job hunt in the corporate sphere hasn't been going anywhere.

Take care, my friends.
