I know that he will claw at it again whenever he feels it's time to make "biscuits", producing more holes but for now it's somewhat decent.
I received some bags of scrap along with 12 masks made of jeans. Yes, jeans as in denim.
First, aren't we all fed up of making masks? Second, who can breath through all this thickness? So, in my usual way, I'm taking them apart, cutting out the inside because ...
I want to use those little bits of cotton. The jeans pieces are thrown out. Sorry, but I have no intention of unsewing these awful stitches.
There were lots of wonderful fabrics in those bags. I'm slowly cutting them in usable pieces.
Granted, it's not the prettiest plant ever but it's blooming. I'm sock!
The last time I worked on this was on April 12, 2024. Let's finish it.
Side A and
Side B. The pink and blue fabrics are flannelette; the brown and yellow are cotton. You can see the sewing around the blue patch is beyond the patch. Those stitches are from the yellow piece on side A. I didn't measure; just winged it. He's happy to have his blanket back on his bed. And that's all that matters to him.

I want to show you this Winter Cactus because it's blooming. A beautiful, vibrant coral colour. I'm in love with it. I'm happy about this because this is MY plant! And it's blooming! I'm a serial plant killer so this is like AMAZING news! I bought it last June, or was it May, anywho, at a garage sale. It was just a tiny little thing. I transferred it in a bigger pot and it survived ... and it's blooming!
Also these Mums from last year that I kept inside all winter long. It came out of the house last Spring and it tried to survive the heat of the summer. Now that the weather is cooler, it's blooming too.
They are calling for a glorious unseasonably warm weekend. I plan to enjoy it to its fullest by sitting outside with a hand sewing project. Yep! I'm taking Ohio Star Shadow out of its summer hibernating state and get it moving forward while I watch the clothes dry on the clothesline.
That sounds like the perfect weekend to me. How about you? any plans?
Enjoy!
