Scorpio, nurse. Battler against mediocrity & ignorance - including my own. We’re all a work in progress. Be the corn in a bean field. #midwesterner #firstgen
#garment #sewing folks can appreciate all the fabric that is in this $3 (nearly new) 4XL shirt I bought at the thrift today! Whatever I make, I want to incorporate the collar and the buttons in the design. I think the sleeves will become the tops for my granddaughter‘s dress.

Enrique‘s Journey was a Pulitzer prize winning account of the immigrant journey. The novel American Dirt is equally excellent.

The mgr at Marshall’s appeared to be having a rough this afternoon. I invited her to pet my dog.
She really appreciated it. Maybe I’ll just wonder around with him this holiday season - when everyone is stressed and struggling?

The side table is my last (for now) furniture project
The lamp base was a thrift shop find, the shade I bought online.
The chair I bought years ago at a resale shop & had recovered. The footstool was a big box find that I sewed a cover for.
Oh, & I didn’t complete my article. 😳

My sewing efforts of late? Zippered pillow covers.
So tired of “spot clean only” (you really cannot wash them and have a good result.)

Perfection is the enemy of the done. Went rather slip shod on making a slipcover for this stool. The final result looked like it🤬
I have more fabric & am going returning to the drawing board to remake it.
It’s gratifying to read y’all‘s missteps to confirm I am not alone.

Yep, I’m one of those people who tells my dogs I love them. ❤️
(And I love on other people’s dogs too. I think it balances out not liking most people. 🤷🏻♀️)

I just learned about lantern flies. I think I saw one last week and I let him live. 😬 apparently I should’ve squished him. 🤬
