A long day
Mar. 3rd, 2016 11:26 pmI have a smug.
I used to run a small costume shop in the SCA called "Your Heart's Desire." Over the years, everything has gone by the wayside.
But today I proved my skills (and usual flaws) were still in shape. I drafted the pattern--from memory--for a man's yoked peasant shirt for Gabriel, cut it and got it sewn. It works great, except it's too tight through the chest. A couple of gussets will fix that.
That absorbed most of my afternoon.
I made it to the rally call for work.
I cleaned the front bathroom. Still need to scrub the tub.
I cleaned in the study. Got one black garbage bag of trash up and out.
I also managed to avoid a flood. The kitchen sink drips and both sinks were running slow. I plunged and ran draino down them. They're good.
Tomorrow: 9-1 at Michaels and then finish the shirt and do up the hats i cut out.
Spaghetti for dinner.
